Directions
  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In an oven proof skillet or pan, begin browning the sausage in the skillet on the stove.
  • Add peppers, onions, and potatoes.
  • Cook over medium heat until the potatoes are tender.
  • Remove from heat. Add cilantro, green chilies and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Scramble the eggs until frothy.
  • Add eggs to the skillet and fold in the eggs, making sure the eggs are evenly distributed.
  • Place in oven and bake until the eggs are set. 6 to 10 minutes.
  • Warm a tortilla in a heavy skillet (I prefer a skillet but you can use a microwave).
  • Once warmed, spoon burrito filling into the middle of the tortilla, add some cheese and fold.
  • Once folded, wrap in aluminum foil to keep warm, until all the burritos are completed. The wrapping in the aluminum foil helps to meld all the flavors.
  • Serve with sour cream or salsa.
