Ingredients

1/2 pound bulk pork sausage

1 onion, peeled and finely chopped

1 can (4 oz.) diced green chilies

10 large eggs

1/3 cup milk or cream

About 1/2 teaspoon salt

About 1/2 teaspoon pepper

6 flour tortillas (10 in.)

3 cups shredded cheddar - jack cheese - divided

Directions

In a 10- to 12-inch nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat, stir sausage, onion, and chilies until meat is crumbled and browned, about 15 minutes. Drain off and discard fat.

In a bowl, beat eggs to blend with 1/3 cup milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pour eggs into meat mixture in frying pan; with a wide spatula, stir over medium-high heat, scraping pan bottom often, until eggs are set to your taste, about 3 minutes for creamy eggs - 5 for firm.

Lay flour tortillas flat on a counter. Spoon an equal portion of the meat and egg mixture in a band down the center of each tortilla to within 1 inch of opposite edges. Sprinkle mixture evenly with 2 cups of cheese and roll burritos up snugly. Set burritos slightly apart, seams down, in a 10- by 15-inch pan; seal pan with foil. If making up to 1 day ahead, chill.

Bake in a 200° oven until cheese is melted - 15 to 20 minutes; if chilled, bake in a 325° oven until hot in the center, about 15 minutes - remove from oven and sprinkle with remaining cheese, put back in the oven uncovered till cheese melts. Serve Hot!

I love this burrito, I usually make them all and then freeze what we don't eat, then zap them for another morning or snack... Great post!

Great, great post!! We love this too! They are delicious, and I have made just two at a time. Also, it is extra special for a breakfast to eat in car! Just wrap individually. Warm, and it's breakfast on the go. Covering with foil is the key, whether baking many in the oven or baking individually. Thanks for sharing, Sunny. :)

I do the same as Shirleyoma does. Freeze them and take them. I do long road trips while teaching and to start the trip off I take a few with us for breakfast or snacks. My partner and I built a small aluminum container that sits on the top of the engine block in our Yukon and the short trip to the Thruway and then at 65 mph in 30 minutes they are usually defrosted and hot and ready to munch. I usually add a salsa right in with it. Heaven on 4 wheels. Never tried canned chilies tho. That's a thought.
