🌯 Sausage Egg and Cheese Breakfast Burritos Simple Step-by-Step Guide provides a hearty and satisfying meal packed with protein to fuel your mornings.
πŸ₯š This recipe is easy to follow, helping you create delicious homemade burritos perfectly balanced with sausage, eggs, and cheese for a comforting breakfast treat.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 8 burritos 1x

Ingredients

Scale

16 eggs

1 lb pork sausage

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

8 large flour tortillas

1 teaspoon olive oil

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

1-Preparing Your Ingredients: First, prepare all ingredients as outlined. Shred the cheese and crack 16 eggs into a large bowl, whisking until the yolks are fully broke. This step, known as mise en place, helps everything run smoothly and ties into the quick-and-simple breakfast burrito guide we’re following.

2-Cooking the Sausage: Next, heat a skillet to medium and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Crumble and cook 1 lb of pork sausage for about 10 minutes until fully done, then remove it from the pan, leaving 1-2 teaspoons of grease behind. This method ensures your sausage breakfast burritos have that flavorful base you love.

3-Scrambling the Eggs: Pour the whisked eggs into the hot skillet. After 10 seconds, add 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese. Gently move the eggs around until they are softly scrambled, taking care not overcook them for the best texture in your cheesy sausage breakfast burritos.

4-Assembling and Serving: Soften the 8 large flour tortillas by microwaving them stacked on a plate, covered with a damp paper towel, for 20 seconds. Lay one tortilla flat, add approximately 1/2 cup scrambled eggs and 1/3 cup cooked sausage, then fold the sides in, tuck the bottom under the filling, and roll tightly. Repeat for the remaining burritos and serve immediately or store for later. For more ideas, check out our grilling techniques guide to add a smoky twist.
