- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
Cooking and Seasoning Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp butter (28 g)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (15 ml)
- 1/2 tsp dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and cook sausage links until thoroughly browned and heated through, approximately 6-8 minutes, rotating occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Remove sausage from skillet, set aside, and wipe down cooking surface with paper towel.
- Whisk eggs in a medium bowl with milk, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well-combined.
- Melt butter in the same skillet over medium-low heat, then gently pour whisked egg mixture into pan.
- Softly scramble eggs, stirring continuously with spatula, creating soft, creamy curds without overcooking, about 2-3 minutes.
- Warm tortillas briefly in microwave or on skillet to increase flexibility.
- Place one slice of cheddar cheese in center of each tortilla.
- Position a cooked sausage link on top of cheese slice.
- Carefully distribute scrambled eggs over sausage.
- Sprinkle dried parsley across egg surface for enhanced flavor.
- Fold tortilla sides inward, then roll from bottom up, creating a tight, sealed package.
- Return skillet to medium heat, add olive oil, and lightly toast roll-ups for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
- Remove from heat, let cool slightly, then slice diagonally and serve immediately.
Notes
- Choose lean sausage varieties like turkey or chicken for a healthier protein option that reduces overall fat content.
- Experiment with different cheese types such as pepper jack or Swiss to create unique flavor profiles and keep breakfast exciting.
- Prep ingredients ahead of time for quick morning assembly, storing scrambled eggs and cooked sausage separately in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
- Make vegetarian-friendly by replacing sausage with plant-based protein like tofu scramble or veggie sausage links for dietary flexibility.
