Sausage, Egg & Cheese Roll-Ups are an easy and delicious breakfast or snack option that combines savory sausage, scrambled eggs, and melty cheese wrapped in a soft tortilla. These roll-ups are quick to make and perfect for meal prep or a grab-and-go breakfast.
Ingredients
- 1 lb breakfast sausage (mild or spicy)
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter (for cooking eggs)
- Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the Sausage:
- In a large skillet, heat the breakfast sausage over medium heat.
- Break the sausage up with a spoon as it cooks, until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes.
- Remove from the skillet and set aside. Drain any excess grease if necessary.
- Scramble the Eggs:
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk, salt, and pepper.
- In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or butter.
- Pour in the egg mixture and cook over medium-low heat, stirring gently until scrambled and fully cooked.
- Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.
- Assemble the Roll-Ups:
- Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface.
- In the center of the tortilla, layer a portion of the cooked sausage, scrambled eggs, and a generous amount of shredded cheese.
- Carefully roll the tortilla up tightly, folding in the sides as you go to secure the filling.
- Warm the Roll-Ups (Optional):
- Heat the roll-ups in the skillet over low heat, seam-side down, for 1-2 minutes on each side until the tortilla is golden and the cheese is melted.
- You can also warm them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes if you’re making a batch.
- Serve:
- Slice the roll-ups in half and serve warm. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs or a drizzle of hot sauce for added flavor.
Tips:
- Meal Prep: These roll-ups can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the microwave or skillet when ready to eat.
- Add Veggies: For added nutrition, you can include sautéed onions, bell peppers, or spinach in the roll-up mixture.
- Make it Spicy: Add a few dashes of hot sauce or include spicy sausage for an extra kick.
- Low-Carb Version: Use low-carb tortillas or lettuce wraps for a lighter, low-carb alternative.
