Description

A delicious fusion dish featuring fluffy scrambled eggs, savory sausage gravy, and gooey cheese wrapped in flour tortillas.


Ingredients

  • 6 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup cooked breakfast potatoes or hashbrowns (optional)
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1/2 pound pork breakfast sausage (or turkey/chicken sausage for a pork-free version)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)


Instructions

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked. Sprinkle in the flour and stir to coat the sausage. Cook for 1 minute.
  2. Slowly add the milk while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder if using. Set aside and keep warm.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Melt butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and cook, stirring gently, until just set. Remove from heat.
  4. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Spoon scrambled eggs, cooked potatoes (if using), green onions, and a mix of shredded cheeses into each tortilla. Roll them up and place seam-side down in the dish.
  5. Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the enchiladas. Sprinkle extra cheese on top if desired.
  6. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 5–10 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
  7. Garnish with extra green onions and serve warm with hot sauce or a side of fresh fruit.

Notes

These enchiladas are best served warm right out of the oven. For a vegetarian version, skip the sausage and add more veggies, like bell peppers and spinach.
