This recipe is from my One Skillet Italian Sausage Scramble. I made the Italian sausage scramble the morning before and then made these fried Italian sausage scrambled breakfast burritos the next morning. Two great breakfast meals out of one! All you have to do is peel and cut up potatoes, throw them in a frying pan, add Italian sausage, onions, pepper and garlic salt. Cook until the sausage is thoroughly cooked and potatoes are soft. Then add the eggs and milk mixture into the pan, scramble until done. Top with grated cheese and let melt. Adding sliced green onions is optional but sure does make these breakfast burritos tastes amazing. Then…
Heat up each tortilla on the stove, add a couple spoonfuls of sausage/egg mixture into the center of each tortilla, roll up and place into another frying pan. Fry until golden brown on both sides. Top with additional cheese and enjoy!
Just look at that cheese! Like I always say, you can never have too much cheese. So, if you are wanting to try something different for breakfast, you are going to love these fried Italian sausage scrambled breakfast burritos.
