Breakfast Burrito Recipe

Breakfast Burrito Recipe
Makes 9 burritos

1/2 pound pork sausage or turkey sausage or mixture of both
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cups potatoes, diced 
4 eggs
9 flour tortillas
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1-2 serrano chiles, finely chopped
2-3 green onions, including half of the green tops, chopped
Chopped cilantro or parsley

Boil the potatoes until done but still firm.  Drain and spread out on plate to dry slightly.  Brown the sausage with the onions.  Drain most of the fat, then add the diced potatoes and spices.  Toss to coat the potatoes with the spices.   

Warm flour tortillas on a hot dry griddle or large skillet and keep warm in a low oven if necessary.  

Whisk the eggs and milk.  Add to sausage and potato mixture over a medium high high. Mix together as in scrambled eggs.  When the eggs are almost done, turn off the heat and gently stir in the cheese, chile, green onions and cilantro.  

Spoon the egg and sausage mixture down the center of the warmed tortillas.  Fold the sides over and serve with the homemade salsa.
