Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 pieces sausage links, low carb
- 4 pieces keto tortillas
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 piece medium avocado
- 0.5 cup salsa
Instructions
In a bowl, crack the eggs and add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbling, pour in the egg mixture.
Gently stir the eggs with a spatula, scraping the bottom of the pan to form soft curds. Continue cooking until the eggs are set but still creamy. Remove from heat and set aside.
In another skillet, cook the low carb sausage links over medium heat until cooked through and browned, about 7-8 minutes. Remove from the pan and slice into bite-sized pieces.
Warm the keto tortillas in a dry skillet for a few seconds on each side until pliable.
To assemble the burritos, lay a tortilla flat and place an equal portion of scrambled eggs in the center. Top with sliced sausage, a sprinkle of cheddar cheese, a few slices of avocado, and a spoonful of salsa.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Optional: Place the wrapped burritos seam-side down back into the skillet to lightly grill the tortilla, about 1-2 minutes per side, for extra crispness.
Serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your low carb sausage breakfast burritos with extra salsa on the side if desired.
