Ingredients
Scale
Breakfast Roll Ingredients
- 1 package breakfast sausage (about 12 oz)
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- Cook the Sausage: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the sausage until it is browned and fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain off any excess grease to keep the rolls from being greasy.
- Prepare Scrambled Eggs: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and melt the butter. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until combined, then pour the mixture into the skillet.
- Scramble the Eggs: Let the eggs cook undisturbed until the edges start to set. Gently scramble using a spatula, stirring slowly until the eggs are soft and creamy but still moist.
- Combine Ingredients: Remove the skillet from heat, then stir the cooked sausage and shredded cheddar cheese into the scrambled eggs, allowing the cheese to melt slightly.
- Assemble Roll-Ups: Lay out the flour tortillas and spoon the sausage and egg mixture evenly onto each tortilla. Fold the sides in and roll each tortilla tightly into a wrap.
- Toast the Roll-Ups: Optionally, place the rolls seam-side down in a skillet over medium heat and toast until the tortillas are crispy and golden brown on the outside, about 2-3 minutes.
Notes
- You can substitute turkey sausage for a leaner option.
- Adding vegetables like diced bell peppers or onions can add extra flavor and nutrition.
- To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free tortillas.
- Leftover roll-ups can be wrapped in foil and refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheated in a skillet or microwave.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the egg mixture.
