Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 pound of breakfast sausage
- 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup of diced green chilies
- 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, until it is no longer pink. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. In a bowl, beat the eggs with the diced green chilies, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set.
- Divide the cooked eggs and sausage evenly among the flour tortillas, placing them in the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle each portion with 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll up tightly to form a burrito.
- In a clean skillet, heat the burritos over medium heat, seam side down, until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Remove from the skillet and let cool for a minute before serving. Enjoy your spicy egg and sausage breakfast burrito with extra cheese!
