Ingredients

  • 16 oz Jimmy Dean regular sausage
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese grated
  • flour tortillas for serving

Instructions

  • Add the sausage to a skillet over medium heat. Use a wooden spoon to break up the sausage into bite size pieces. Cook until no longer pink. Transfer the cooked sausage to a plate that has 2-3 paper towels on it. Drain excess fat from the skillet, leaving behind 1-2 teaspoons to cook the eggs in. Turn the heat to low.
  • Add the eggs to a bowl and whisk until smooth. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula slowly move the egg mixture, cook for about 2-3 minutes. The egg should be a pile of custardy and soft scrambled egg folds. 
  • Add the sausage to the eggs and mix to incorporate. Turn off the heat. Sprinkle the cheese overtop and let sit for a minute to allow the cheese to melt. 
  • Spoon the sausage and egg mixture into a flour tortilla, roll up and enjoy! 

Notes
