Ingredients
  

Protein
  • 1 pound Sausage, crumbled (for filling)
  • 1/2 pound Sausage, crumbled (for sausage gravy)
  • 6 pieces Eggs, scrambled
Rice/Grains
  • 4 pieces Tortillas, medium size
Cheeses
  • 2 cups Cheese, shredded
Veggies
  • 1 cup Hash Browns, frozen or fresh
Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Flour, all-purpose
  • 2 cups Milk, whole or plant-based
Spices
  • Seasonings, to taste (salt, pepper, garlic powder)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a non-stick pan over medium heat, cook the crumbled sausage for about 5-7 minutes, or until fully browned. Stir occasionally for even cooking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, and hash browns. Season with salt, pepper, and other desired spices. Mix until well combined.
  3. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Assembly
  1. Place a tortilla flat and spoon 1/4 of the egg and sausage mixture in a line down the center. Sprinkle with cheese, then roll the tortilla tightly. Place it seam side down in a greased baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Making the Sausage Gravy
  1. In the same pan used for the sausage, add the 1/2 pound of sausage for the gravy and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until browned.
  2. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of flour over the cooked sausage and stir for 1 minute to combine.
  3. Add 2 cups of milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and bubbles, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper.
Baking
  1. Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish. Sprinkle any remaining cheese on top.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving
  1. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Breakfast Enchiladas with Sausage Gravy!

Notes

Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. Don’t overcook the eggs; they'll continue to cook when baked. Feel free to adjust seasonings according to your taste. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
