Ingredients

  • 0.5 pound bulk pork sausage 
  • 10 large eggs 
  •  flour tortillas (10 in.)
  • oz chilies diced green canned
  • 0.5 lb onion peeled finely chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon pepper 
  • servings chili con queso salsa 
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt 
  • 0.5 lb cheddar cheese shredded

Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • ladle
  • oven
  • aluminum foil
  • spatula

Directions

  1. In a 10- to 12-inch nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat, stir sausage, onion, and chilies until meat is crumbled and browned, about 15 minutes.
  2. Drain off and discard fat.
  3. In a bowl, beat eggs to blend with 1/3 cup water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
  4. Pour eggs into meat mixture in frying pan; with a wide spatula, stir over medium-high heat, scraping pan bottom often, until eggs are set to your taste, about 3 minutes for creamy eggs.
  5. Lay flour tortillas flat on a counter. Spoon an equal portion of the meat and egg mixture in a band down the center of each tortilla to within 1 inch of opposite edges.
  6. Sprinkle mixture evenly with cheese. To form each burrito, fold the bare 1-inch-wide tortilla edges over filling, then roll snugly from an open edge to enclose. Set burritos slightly apart, seams down, in a 10- by 15-inch pan; seal pan with foil. If making up to 1 day ahead, chill.
  7. Bake in a 200 oven until cheese is melted (cut a slit to test), 15 to 20 minutes; if chilled, bake in a 325 oven until hot in the center, about 15 minutes.
  8. Set burritos on plates and ladle about 1/2 cup hot chili con queso salsa on and around each. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
