Ingredients
- 7 ounce box fully cooked sausage links
- 5 large eggs
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese , your favorite kind
- 10 white corn tortillas , or use 6'' flour tortillas
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Warm sausages: Add sausage links to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, turning occasionally, until warmed through. Remove to a plate, leaving any sausage grease in the pan.
- Scramble eggs: Crack eggs into a bowl and add a splash of water or milk. Whisk well with a fork and then add to the pan. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, tossing and scrambling as they cook. (If using spinach, add it to the pan about 2 minutes before the eggs are done cooking.) Remove from heat.
- Warm tortillas on a hot dry skillet or griddle for a few seconds until they are pliable.
- Assemble: Divide the scrambled eggs among the tortillas and top with shredded cheese. Place a sausage link on top. Roll up and place, seam side down, on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper.
- Bake: Spray lightly with cooking spray and bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with salsa for dipping.
