Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 links vegetarian sausage
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 small onion
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large tortillas
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro
Instructions
Start by dicing the red bell pepper and the onion into small, manageable pieces.
In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced bell pepper and onion to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until they are soft and the onion becomes translucent.
Meanwhile, crumble the vegetarian sausage links into small pieces.
Add the crumbled sausage to the skillet with the peppers and onion. Cook for an additional 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is browned.
In a bowl, whisk 4 large eggs with 2 tablespoons of milk, and season with salt and black pepper.
Reduce the heat to low and push the sausage and vegetable mixture to one side of the skillet.
Pour the egg mixture into the empty side of the skillet and gently scramble, combining it with the sausage and vegetables as it cooks.
Continue cooking until the eggs are fully cooked, then remove the skillet from the heat.
Warm the large tortillas by setting them on a skillet for 10-15 seconds each or until they become pliable.
Spread each tortilla with 2 tablespoons of salsa.
Divide the scrambled egg and sausage mixture evenly among the tortillas. Sprinkle each with shredded cheddar cheese and a bit of fresh cilantro.
Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll them up to form a burrito.
Serve the burritos warm, optionally with extra salsa on the side.
