Description
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 lb turkey sausage
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 diced bell pepper
- ½ cup chopped onion
- 1 cup spinach
- ½ cup chunky salsa
- 1 tsp cumin
- ½ tsp chili powder
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 5 10-inch flour tortillas
Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Sausage
Heat ½ tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high. Add sausage. Break it up as it cooks. Brown for 7 minutes. Drain fat. Set aside.
Step 2: Sauté the Veggies
Add ½ tbsp olive oil to the same skillet. Toss in bell peppers, onions, cumin, and chili powder. Cook for 5 minutes until soft. Push veggies to one side.
Step 3: Scramble the Eggs
Whisk eggs with a pinch of salt. Pour into the skillet’s empty side. Stir gently for 3-4 minutes until set. Mix in veggies and sausage.
Warm tortillas in the microwave for 10 seconds. Spoon ¼ cup filling onto each tortilla. Add cheese and salsa. Fold sides in. Roll tightly. Heat on the skillet for 2 minutes per side.
Notes
- Swap turkey sausage for chorizo for a spicier kick.
- Use egg whites to cut fat—12 whites equal 6 whole eggs.
- Add avocado for a creamy twist. I tried this once, and it was a game-changer.
- Don’t overfill—tortillas tear easily. Stick to ¼ cup filling.
