Instructions
- In a large skillet cook sausage* over medium-high heat, breaking up sausage into small pieces. Remove from pan and set aside.
- Turn heat to medium and add butter to skillet. Add eggs seasoned with salt and pepper. Cook for about a minute or until eggs begin to set on the bottom. Gently pull the spatula across the pan several times while cooking. Remove from heat and fold in sausage and 1 cups of cheese sauce.
- To prepare cheese sauce, in a small saucepan melt butter on medium heat. Add onion and saute until fragrant and soft. Add milk and begin adding cheese one cup at a time. In a small bowl combine arrowroot with 1 tablespoon of water. Add to cheese and stir until until all cheese is melted and warm (approximately 5 minutes).
- To assemble casserole, add about 1/3 - 1/2 cup of egg mixture in the center of each tortilla and roll. Place filled tortillas seam side down in a lightly greased baking dish. Pour cheese sauce over tortillas and bake for 20-25 minutes. Top with diced tomatoes.
Notes
- Use your favorite seasoned sausage. You can also use part bacon and part sausage.
- Egg mix is enough for eight. The photos shows six tortillas in an 8" x 8" baking pan.
- I used La Tortilla Factory Low Carb Fajita whole wheat tortillas
