Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Roll-Ups are a delightful and convenient way to kick off your day with a tasty, handheld breakfast. They’re simple to prepare and offer a perfect mix of savory sausage, fluffy scrambled eggs, and gooey melted cheese, all wrapped in a soft tortilla. Here’s an easy recipe to try:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb breakfast sausage (mild or spicy, based on preference)
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese)
- 1 tablespoon butter or oil (for cooking eggs)
- 4 large flour tortillas (soft taco-sized)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: hot sauce, salsa, or ketchup for dipping
Instructions:
- Cook the Sausage:
In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat, breaking it into small pieces as it browns.
Cook for 5-7 minutes until fully done, then drain excess fat and set aside.
- Scramble the Eggs:
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and beat well.
In the same skillet (cleaned if needed), melt butter or heat oil over medium-low heat.
Pour in the eggs and gently scramble until cooked to your liking. Remove from heat.
- Assemble the Roll-Ups:
Lay a tortilla flat and place a portion of cooked sausage in the center.
Add a layer of scrambled eggs on top, followed by a sprinkle of shredded cheese.
- Roll-Up:
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to enclose the filling.
- Optional Toasting:
For a crispy finish, heat a little butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Toast each roll-up for 1-2 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
Serve:
Slice the roll-ups in half if desired and serve with hot sauce, salsa, or ketchup for dipping.
Tips:
Prep Ahead: Cook the sausage and eggs the night before for quick assembly in the morning.
Add Veggies: Enhance flavor and nutrition by adding sautéed onions, bell peppers, or spinach.
Freezer-Friendly: Wrap roll-ups in foil or plastic wrap and freeze. Reheat in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or bake in the oven.
