Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 large potatoes diced into bite-sized pieces

  • 1 yellow onion diced
  • 1 lb ground sausage
  • 12 eggs scrambled
  • 16 oz Mexican cheese or shredded cheese of choice
  • Tortillas
  • hot sauce if desired
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, melt butter on medium-high heat, add potatoes, and sauté for 3-5 minutes.
  • Add onions and peppers and sauté until everything reaches a desired level of doneness. Remove from pan and set aside.
  • Add sausage to skillet and sauté until cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  • Soak up most of the grease, then fry up your eggs until scrambled to your desired consistency.
  • Add potato mixture and sausage back to the pan and thoroughly mix.
  • Add one spoonful of this mixture to a taco-sized tortilla and top with crumbled Mexican cheese. Top with hot sauce if desired. Wrap and serve.
  • If freezing, lay filled and wrapped tortillas on a cookie sheet and freeze for an hour or two. Then remove and store in freezer-safe bag or container until ready to eat. Reheat in microwave whenever the craving strikes!
