How to Make Tex Mex Scramble

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add breakfast sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. About 8-10 minutes.
  2. Drain off excess grease from the skillet.
  3. Add the chopped onions and green bell peppers to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add remaining ingredients except for tortillas, chili, cheese, and olives. (Please specify these missing ingredients in the 'ingredients' section above)
  5. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.
  6. While the scramble simmers, heat the chili in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Keep warm.
  7. Warm the tortillas in the microwave for 15-30 seconds, wrapped in a damp paper towel, or heat them in a dry skillet for a few seconds per side.
  8. Fill each tortilla with about 1 cup of the sausage mixture. Fold the tortilla in half or roll it up.
  9. Top each tortilla with a spoonful of warm chili, shredded cheese, and sliced olives (if using).
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Tex-Mex Scramble!
