Introduction

Original recipe calls for regular breakfast sausage, such as Jimmy Dean. But I found this substitute to taste just as good and much less fat and healthier. A great grab and go breakfast. Make ahead and wrap individually in the refridge, micro for 30 seconds on high and go!! Original recipe calls for regular breakfast sausage, such as Jimmy Dean.

    This is awesome! Easy to make ahead and wamr up in the morning for a quick breakfast on the go. I used Jennie O Turkey Sausage for an even lower fat content. My husband LOVED it! - 9/22/08

    I tried it with turkey sausage too. It came out great but higher in calories & fat. Using the Gimme Lean sausage, it's 233 calories, 7g fat. The whole package of turkey sausage was 293 calories, 16g fat. (No wonder why it tasted better!) It's just a matter of taste pref. and how strict you are.

    These are SOOO unbelievable delicious!!!! I will be adding this to my home cookbook!
    I substituted fish sauce for the tobasco sauce and used mozzarella cheese (bc its less calories) instead of the cheddar.
