Enjoy your Easy Sausage Egg & Cheese Roll-Ups warm, and feel free to dip them in salsa! For the full recipe, check the section above. To get fluffy eggs, start with fresh eggs. Crack them into a bowl and whisk well. Mixing in milk adds creaminess. It also helps the eggs puff up. Cook them on medium heat. Stir gently, letting them form soft curds. Take them off the heat just as they set. They will continue to cook from the heat. Avoid filling spillage by not overstuffing your tortillas. Place a small amount of the sausage and egg mixture in the center. Fold in the sides of the tortilla before rolling it up tightly. This keeps everything inside. Use a clean surface for rolling, which makes it easier. Make sure the seam side is down when you place them in the skillet. For a fun presentation, arrange the roll-ups on a platter, cut side up. You can sprinkle extra chives or cheese on top for color. Pair them with salsa for dipping. You might also try hot sauce for a spicy kick. These touches make your dish more inviting. {{image_4}} For a tasty vegetarian option, swap the sausage with plant-based alternatives. You can use crumbled tofu, tempeh, or even black beans for a hearty filling. These choices add protein and flavor while keeping the dish meat-free. When it comes to cheese, feel free to experiment. Try mozzarella, pepper jack, or even a vegan cheese. Each option brings a unique taste and texture. Mixing different cheeses can also enhance the flavor. Want to add some heat? Incorporate jalapeños or drizzle hot sauce into the egg mixture. These spicy additions will give your roll-ups a delightful kick. You can also add diced bell peppers or onions for extra flavor and crunch. For more flavor, consider adding herbs like cilantro or spices like cumin. A sprinkle of smoked paprika can also add depth to your dish. Experiment with what you love to make it your own. To make breakfast easier, you can prepare these roll-ups ahead of time. Cook the sausage, eggs, and cheese mixture, then fill the tortillas. Wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or foil. Store them in the fridge for up to three days. When you're ready to eat, simply reheat in the microwave or skillet. If you prefer, you can also freeze them. Just make sure to separate them with parchment paper. This keeps them from sticking together. Reheat from frozen for a quick and easy meal. For the full recipe, check out the detailed instructions above. To keep your sausage egg and cheese roll-ups fresh, store leftovers in the fridge. Place them in airtight containers to prevent drying out. You can also wrap them tightly in plastic wrap. This will help keep them moist and tasty. They will stay good for 3 to 4 days. Choose containers that fit the roll-ups snugly. Glass containers work well. Plastic containers are lighter and easier to handle. If you want to avoid waste, use reusable silicone bags. They are great for storing food and are eco-friendly. You can freeze these roll-ups for later enjoyment. To do this, let them cool completely first. Then, wrap each roll-up in plastic wrap. After wrapping, place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. This will keep them fresh for about 2 to 3 months. Make sure to label the bags with the date. This helps you keep track of how long they have been in the freezer. For best results, freeze them before cooking. If you want to freeze cooked roll-ups, make sure they are cooled fully to avoid sogginess. When you're ready to eat, take one roll-up out of the freezer. Remove the plastic wrap and place it on a microwave-safe plate. Heat it in the microwave for about 1 to 2 minutes. You can also reheat them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15 minutes. This will make them crispy again! Enjoy your roll-ups warm and delicious. Yes, you can prepare these roll-ups ahead of time. Just follow these steps: - Make the filling and let it cool. - Roll up the tortillas and wrap them tightly in plastic wrap. - Place them in the fridge for up to 24 hours. When you are ready to eat, cook them in a skillet. This keeps them fresh and tasty. For the best results, I recommend these tortillas: - Small flour tortillas - Corn tortillas - Whole wheat tortillas Each type brings a different taste. Flour tortillas are soft and easy to roll. Corn tortillas add a nice crunch. Whole wheat tortillas offer a healthy twist. You can easily change the filling to fit your taste. Here are some ideas: - Swap the breakfast sausage for turkey or veggie sausage. - Use different cheeses like pepper jack or mozzarella. - Add veggies like bell peppers or spinach for more flavor. For extra taste, try adding: - Salsa or hot sauce for heat. - Fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley for freshness. Feel free to get creative with your roll-ups!

Ingredients
  

6 small flour tortillas

6 breakfast sausages, cooked and crumbled

4 large eggs

1/4 cup milk

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped (optional)

Salsa, for dipping (optional)

Instructions
 

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, thoroughly whisk together the eggs and milk. Add garlic powder, onion powder, a pinch of salt, and pepper, and blend until the mixture is smooth and frothy.

    Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and gently pour in the egg mixture. Allow it to cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set and slightly fluffy.

      Remove the skillet from heat and carefully fold in the crumbled sausage and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir gently until the cheese has melted into the warm mixture. If you choose to add them, sprinkle the chopped chives evenly over the filling.

        Take one tortilla and lay it flat on a clean surface. Spoon a generous portion of the sausage and egg mixture into the center of the tortilla.

          Tightly roll the tortilla, folding in the sides as you go to securely encase the filling within. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas and filling.

            Return the skillet to medium heat and lightly coat it with non-stick spray if needed. Place the roll-ups seam side down in the skillet and let them cook for 2-3 minutes or until the bottom is a lovely golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip the roll-ups and cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until similarly golden.

              Once cooked, remove the roll-ups from the skillet and let them cool for about a minute. Then, slice each roll-up in half for easy serving.

                Serve the roll-ups warm with salsa for dipping on the side, if desired.
