Ingredients
- 8 large flour tortillas (10-inch size)
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 12 large eggs, scrambled
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Sausage: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add breakfast sausage and cook 8-10 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat and set aside.
- Scramble the Eggs: In the same skillet, scramble eggs over medium-low heat until just set but still creamy. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Remove from heat and cool 5 minutes.
- Prepare Cheese Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese with half the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble Roll-Ups: Lay each tortilla flat. Spread 2 tablespoons cream cheese mixture in center. Add scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, and remaining cheddar cheese.
- Roll and Seal: Roll each tortilla tightly, tucking in sides. Brush seam with melted butter to seal. Place seam-side down on baking sheet.
- Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush tops with melted butter and bake 12-15 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Notes
Make-Ahead Tips: Assemble completely, wrap individually in plastic wrap, and freeze up to 3 months. Reheat from frozen: microwave 2-3 minutes or bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes.
Pro Tips: Let cooked ingredients cool slightly before assembling to prevent soggy tortillas. Don’t overfill tortillas. Use room temperature tortillas for easier rolling.
Variations: Substitute sausage with bacon, ham, or turkey sausage. For vegetarian, use plant-based sausage or sautéed vegetables.
Storage: Refrigerate up to 4 days. Best consumed within 2-3 days for optimal quality.
