Ingredients

• 1 pound Breakfast sausage (ground)
• 8 large Eggs
• 1 cup Milk
• 1.5 cups Red enchilada sauce
• 8 medium Flour tortillas
• 2 cups Cheddar cheese (shredded)
• 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese (shredded)
• 3 stalks Green onions (sliced)
• 0.25 cup Cilantro (chopped, optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil or cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked through. Drain any excess grease and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined. Set aside.

Step 4

Spread about 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 5

Lay a tortilla flat, sprinkle some cooked sausage, shredded Cheddar cheese, and Monterey Jack cheese onto the tortilla, and roll it up tightly. Place the rolled tortilla seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, arranging them snugly in the dish.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the rolled tortillas, making sure it seeps into the spaces between them.

Step 7

Pour the remaining 1 cup of enchilada sauce over the tortillas, spreading it evenly with the back of a spoon.

Step 8

Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese over the top of the dish.

Step 9

Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 11

Garnish with sliced green onions and chopped cilantro, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
