Ingredients
- 6 Flour Tortillas
- 1 Lb Hot Breakfast Sausage (Jimmy Dean)
- 20 oz Shredded Potatoes (Hashbrowns)
- 2 Tbs Olive Oil
- 1 Tbs Butter
- 6 Eggs
- 6 oz Shredded Cheese – Cheddar or Pepper Jack
- Taco Sauce
- Salt
- Ground Black Pepper
Directions
- In a large pan, warm the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shredded potatoes and spread evenly across the pan. Cook the potatoes for 8 to 10 minutes. Stir or flip the potatoes over and continue to cook for another 8 to 10 minutes. Stir occasionally and continue to cook until the potatoes are crispy to your liking.
- While you cook the potatoes, smash 2.5 oz of breakfast sausage evenly on one side of the tortilla (makes 6 tacos). Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, spray with cooking spray and cook the breakfast sausage tortilla, sausage side down, for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the tortilla and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes. Be careful not to burn the tortilla on the second side.
- Repeat this process for the remaining 5 tortillas, but you may need to decrease the time by a minute after the first taco as the heat of the pan may have increased. Just make sure that the sausage is cooked through, which will not take long because they are so thinly spread on the tortilla.
- After the potatoes and smashed tacos are done cooking, whisk the eggs well in a medium size bowl. Clean one of your pans, or you can use the pan that the sausage cooked in to add flavor to the eggs. Spray the bottom of the pan with cooking spray or melt a Tbs of butter over low-medium heat. Add the eggs and using a spatula, stir the eggs every 30 to 45 seconds to cook the eggs evenly. Season with salt and ground black pepper. Once the eggs have reached your desired doneness, pull them off the heat and set to the side. NOTE: You can sub the scrambled eggs for eggs prepared any other way you would like.
- Build your tacos!! Add your hashbrowns, eggs, shredded cheese, and taco sauce. You can add other toppings such as sour cream and cilantro at your leisure. Enjoy!
