Ingredients
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 medium russet potato
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 0.25 cup sour cream
- 2 stalks green onions
Directions
Step 1
Peel the russet potato and dice it into small cubes.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Remove and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
Step 3
In the same skillet, add the breakfast sausage and cook over medium heat, breaking it into crumbles with a wooden spoon. Cook for about 7-8 minutes, or until fully browned and cooked through. Transfer the sausage to a plate and set aside.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 5
Wipe out the skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pour in the egg mixture and cook over medium heat, gently stirring, until the eggs are scrambled and just set, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the heat.
Step 6
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet for 20-30 seconds on each side to make them more pliable.
Step 7
Assemble the burritos: Lay a tortilla flat and place an equal portion of potatoes, sausage, scrambled eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, and a spoonful of salsa in the center. Add a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle with chopped green onions.
Step 8
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
Step 9
Optional: Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and toast the burritos seam-side down for 1-2 minutes per side to seal and crisp up the outside.
Step 10
Serve immediately with additional salsa and sour cream on the side, if desired.
