Yield makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive or canola oil
1/2 pound favorite loose or ground sausage
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons favorite salsa
1 cup coarsely grated sharp Cheddar cheese (about 4 ounces)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon cayenne (optional)
2 large flour tortillas, warmed

Steps:

  • In a medium nonstick skillet over moderate heat, heat 1/2 tablespoon oil until hot but not smoking. Add the sausage and sauté, stirring occasionally and breaking into small crumbles, until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, salsa, 1/2 cup of cheese, garlic, and cayenne, if using, and season with freshly ground black pepper.
  • Return the nonstick skillet to moderate heat and warm the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil. Add the egg mixture and sprinkle with the cooked sausage. Using a heatproof spatula, gently scramble the mixture until the eggs are cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Divide the eggs evenly between the warmed tortillas and top each with the remaining cheese. Roll up the tortillas to form burritos, then cut them in half and serve immediately.
