Breakfast 40 Mins.

Ingredients

4

4 servings

  • 4 eggs
  • 20 frozen bite-size potato nuggets (such as Tater Tots®)
  • 1 bunch green onions, white parts only, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 5 links frozen turkey sausage (such as Jimmy Dean®)
  • 5 slices cooked bacon, cut into pieces
  • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 ½ cups milk
  • 3 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 4 (9 inch) whole wheat flour tortillas
  • 8 thin slices Cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Spray a large skillet with cooking spray; warm over medium-high heat. Whisk eggs together in a bowl. Pour into the skillet; cook and stir until eggs are set, about 5 minutes.
  • Arrange potato nuggets in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 17 to 19 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine green onions and butter in a cold saucepan.
  • Remove sausage links from plastic pouches. Place on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a paper towel. Microwave until heated through, 60 to 65 seconds.
  • Cut sausages into small pieces and add to the onion-butter mixture; add bacon. Heat mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until butter is melted. Stir slowly, adding a few spoonfuls of flour at a time, until mixture becomes a paste. Slowly drizzle in milk while mixing constantly. Reduce heat to low; cook and stir until a thick gravy is formed, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in black pepper and cayenne pepper.
  • Lay a tortilla on a microwave-safe plate. Place 2 slices Cheddar cheese down the middle of the tortilla. Spoon 1/4 of the scrambled eggs over the cheese. Add about 5 potato nuggets. Microwave until heated through, about 20 seconds. Spoon the gravy down the middle of the burrito. Microwave for 20 to 30 seconds more. Roll 1 of the opposing edges around the filling while burrito is still warm. Assemble 3 more burritos with remaining ingredients.
