Sausage, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Roll-Up
Submitted by: MEYLOSE
Introduction
Take this simple, savory breakfast on the go! Take this simple, savory breakfast on the go!Ingredients
-
1/2 cup egg substitute
2 sliced mushrooms
1/4 red bell pepper, chopped
1/4 green bell pepper, chopped
2 Tbsp chopped red onion
1/2 cup spinach, torn
2 turkey sausage patties, precooked and broken up
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 (8-inch) whole-wheat tortillas
Tips
Cook the sausage and chop the veggies ahead of time so your breakfast is ready in no time.
Hurry, quick, I'm running late! Sound familiar? So you stop on your way and pick up a breakfast burrito. Sounds good. But wait, it's really not as good as it sounds. Unhealthy, a waste of precious calories, and a terrible way to start your day. How about having a Sausage, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Roll-Up remade so it is a quick and easy way to start your day? It has about 1/2 the calories of fast food version.
Directions
Scramble egg with pre-chopped veggies and pre-cooked sausage in bowl, mix and cook. Add cheese and allow to melt slightly.
Turn off stove, place tortillas on top of eggs to warm for a moment, then remove.
Fill tortillas, roll up and serve.
This is a versitile recipe. You can change the veggies to whatever you have on hand and get a diffferent flavor, experiment a little and ENJOY your day.
You can also pair this up with some fresh fruit if desired.

Have just looked at recipe for 1st time & have a suggestion to make morning prep faster. Night before, scramble eggs & vegetables until egg isn't quite done. Next am place shell, mixture & cheese on plate. Heat in microwave.
Or at least have all your vegetables cut up the night before. - 11/17/09

I often have the veggies leftover from the night befores dinner ( I even cut up extras so I'll have some and put them awa in the fridge so noone sees them) and it really helps in making a faster prep time. Thank you KBUCKMASH for your great suggestions.

I would really love to try this, but before I can I have to know: out of 10.7g of total fat, only 4.6g are accounted for on the nutritional breakdown. Do you know where the other 4.6g of fat are hiding? (I generally forgive a 1 or 2g discrepancy, but one that large raises red flags for me. help.) - 11/17/09

At the moment I do not know, but will check all my ingredents and see. Thank you for catching this, I never noticed that before.

Eliminate sausage, use egg SW substitutes, 1/4 cup chopped veggies, onions, spinach, non-fat cheese, salsa and I use Mrs Dash southwest chipolte seasoning when cooking the eggs, an OLE high fiber tortilla (12 gms) low carb (5), warm tortilla in micro for 18 secs, fill. Chop veggies ahead & store - 1/5/10

Sounds delicious and healthy - but I'd go for a nonfat and leaner sausage option, way less cheese (and nonfat) and healthy wholegrain wraps instead of regular flour tortillas. - 11/5/09

THANKX for the review of my recipe, I used a Tortilla Factory, Whole Wheat Low Carb Tortilla in my recipe. My son likes the pork sausage and extra cheeses so I give a little for him on that. It is versitile, so you can change or adjust anything you might want to.

I cannot wait to make this! I'm freezing them individually so they're good to go. - 5/17/10

I have never frozen them, they seem to be eaten up so fast at my house.

Thank you for a recipe which uses turkey as I'm not a beef or pork eater. It sounds delish and I'll have to use it on the family in the morning. A piece of fruit will top it off. Looking forward to it! - 5/17/10

Oh they are really good with some fresh strawberrie slices on the side, enjoy.

oh yes!!! This is a great recipe... as is... or variable depending on what's in the fridge! - 5/17/10
Reply from MEYLOSE (5/17/10)
It can definately be good to use up different veggies from the fridge, still the same but different too!!!

Just a suggestion: Use a La Tortilla Factory low-carb whole wheat tortilla for additional fiber and taste. It's probably much lower in calories as wel. - 11/4/09
