Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces sausage links
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 2 tablespoons, chopped green onions
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add the sausage links. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside to cool slightly. Once cooled, slice into small pieces.
Step 2: In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of butter and allow it to melt over medium heat.
Step 3: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 4: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, gently stirring, until scrambled and cooked through, around 3-4 minutes.
Step 5: Remove the eggs from the heat. Stir in the chopped green onions and sliced sausage pieces.
Step 6: Warm the flour tortillas in a separate pan or microwave for a few seconds until they are pliable.
Step 7: To assemble the burritos, lay a warm tortilla on a flat surface. Evenly distribute the egg and sausage mixture onto the center of each tortilla.
Step 8: Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and top with salsa.
Step 9: Fold in the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Step 10: Place the assembled burritos seam side down on a preheated skillet for 1-2 minutes to seal the edges and lightly toast. Serve warm.
