- 1 pound breakfast sausage (pork or turkey)
- 1/4 cup salsa
- 1–2 cups potatoes O’Brien with onions and peppers
- 8 (8-inch) flour tortillas
- 6 large eggs
- 1 1/4 cups half-and-half
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack or pepper jack cheese, divided
Optional Toppings:

Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Cook Sausage and Potatoes: In a large skillet, brown the sausage over medium-high heat. Drain any excess grease. Transfer to a bowl and stir in salsa, ¾ cup cheddar cheese, and ¼ cup Monterey Jack cheese. Add potatoes O’Brien to the skillet and cook until heated through. Add to the sausage mixture and stir to combine.
- Fill Tortillas: Spoon ⅛ of the sausage and potato mixture into the center of each tortilla. Roll up tightly and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
- Make Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, flour, and salt. Pour over the filled tortillas in the baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese.
- Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Top with your desired toppings and serve immediately.
Notes
- Make Ahead: Assemble the enchiladas and egg mixture the night before, cover, and refrigerate. Bake the next morning according to the instructions.
- Variation: Sprinkle crumbled bacon over the top with the cheese before baking.
- Storage: Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven.
