Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 large tortillas
- 4 breakfast sausage links
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Hot sauce for serving
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by gathering tortillas, sausage links, eggs, cheese, salt, pepper, and hot sauce on your cooking workspace.
- Cook breakfast sausage links in a skillet over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove from pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet, crack eggs and cook sunny-side up or scrambled, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook eggs until just set but still soft, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Warm tortillas in microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them more pliable and easier to roll.
- Place one cooked sausage link in the center of each tortilla, then top with scrambled or fried egg.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese over the egg and sausage, allowing the residual heat to slightly melt the cheese.
- Fold the bottom of the tortilla up, then fold in the sides, rolling tightly to create a compact wrap.
- Optional: Return roll-ups to skillet and toast for 1-2 minutes on each side to create a crispy exterior.
- Slice roll-ups diagonally and serve immediately with hot sauce on the side for added flavor.
Tips
- Choose high-quality tortillas that are fresh and flexible to ensure easy rolling.
- For extra flavor, consider using flavored breakfast sausages like maple or spicy varieties.
- Don't overcook your eggs - keep them slightly soft for a more creamy texture.
- If you want a crispier exterior, definitely toast the roll-ups in the skillet after assembly.
- Experiment with different cheese types like pepper jack or sharp cheddar for variety.
- Prep ingredients beforehand to make the cooking process smooth and quick.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the roll-ups while the cheese is still melty and the tortilla is warm.
- For a healthier version, use whole wheat tortillas and turkey sausage.
- Keep hot sauce on the side to let everyone customize their spice level.
