Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb 450g breakfast sausage
  • 6 large eggs
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 small flour tortillas
  • 1 avocado sliced
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tbsp butter or oil for cooking
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: salsa hot sauce

Equipment

  • 1 Skillet
  • 1 mixing bowls

Method
 

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the breakfast sausage until fully browned and cooked through. Break it into small pieces while cooking. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add a little butter or oil and cook the eggs over medium-low heat, stirring gently until soft and fluffy. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat the tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.
  4. Layer the cooked sausage and scrambled eggs on each tortilla. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top and let it melt slightly.
  5. Top with avocado slices, chopped cilantro, and optional salsa or hot sauce. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • You can make the sausage and eggs ahead of time and store separately in the fridge for a quick breakfast.
  • Try different cheeses like pepper jack, Monterey jack, or a Mexican cheese blend.
  • Vegetarian option: swap sausage with sautéed mushrooms or roasted bell peppers.
