Ingredients

• 4 pieces Low-carb tortillas
• 500 grams Ground sausage
• 6 large Eggs
• 120 grams Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 large Bell pepper
• 0.5 medium Onion
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 medium Avocado
• 120 grams Salsa
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by prepping the vegetables: dice the bell pepper and onion finely.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, cooking until they become soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the ground sausage to the skillet with the vegetables. Cook the sausage thoroughly, breaking it up with a spoon as it browns, about 7-8 minutes.

Step 4

While the sausage is cooking, crack eggs into a bowl and whisk them together with a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Step 5

In a separate non-stick pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Pour in the beaten eggs and gently scramble until just set, approximately 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Once the sausage and veggie mixture is fully cooked, drain any excess fat if necessary. Combine the scrambled eggs with the sausage mixture in the skillet and gently stir to combine.

Step 7

Warm the low-carb tortillas briefly in a microwave or on a dry skillet to make them pliable.

Step 8

Lay each tortilla flat and evenly distribute the sausage and egg mixture along the center. Sprinkle a handful of shredded cheddar cheese over the filling.

Step 9

Slice the avocado and add a few pieces on top of each filled burrito, optionally adding a spoonful of salsa.

Step 10

Carefully roll the tortillas into burritos by folding in the sides and rolling them upward tightly.

Step 11

Serve immediately. Enjoy your low-carb sausage burritos with any extra salsa or avocado slices on the side.
