Ingredients
Scale
Gathering a few simple ingredients is all it takes to bring these roll ups to life. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 8 pre-cooked sausage links
- 8 slices of cheddar cheese
- 8 flour tortillas
- Optional: Salsa or hot sauce for serving
If you’re missing an ingredient, don’t panic. For instance, you can substitute cheddar with mozzarella or even a spicy pepper jack for a little kick. The roll ups are versatile enough to adapt based on what’s in your fridge.
Instructions
Ready to create something delicious? Follow these simple steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add the egg mixture.
- Cook the eggs, stirring gently, until they just begin to set but are still slightly runny, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Lay a tortilla flat, place a slice of cheese in the center, followed by a sausage link and a scoop of the scrambled eggs.
- Roll up the tortilla tightly around the filling, tucking in the sides as you go.
- Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- For an added touch, place the roll ups seam side down back in the skillet and cook over medium heat until the tortillas are golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
The key to perfectly scrambled eggs lies in low and slow cooking. I learned this from my dad, who always said, “Patience is the secret ingredient.” Keeping the eggs slightly undercooked before assembling ensures they stay creamy and delicious in the roll ups.
