How to Make Tex Mex Egg Burritos

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Drain off any excess grease from the skillet.
  3. Add the eggs and green chilies to the skillet with the cooked sausage.
  4. Cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are set but still slightly moist, about 5-7 minutes. Do not overcook or stir constantly.
  5. While the egg mixture cooks, microwave each tortilla for 10-15 seconds to soften.
  6. Spoon the egg and sausage mixture down the center of each warm tortilla.
  7. Top with a generous amount of your favorite picante sauce and shredded cheese.
  8. Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then fold the bottom up and over the filling to create a burrito.
  9. Serve the burritos immediately and enjoy!
