Green Chile, Sausage, Scrambled Egg Burritos

I love breakfast burritos. They are incredibly healthy, if you make them the right way, and they are super filling. You can make breakfast burritos almost any way you prefer, but this is one of my favorite kinds to make. I like to throw in a little spicy salsa on top of my eggs before I wrap up my burrito. Salsa verde is the perfect salsa if you wish to do this with these breakfast burritos.

Green Chile, Sausage, Scrambled Egg Burritos
Serves: 4

Ingredients
8 eggs
8oz Jimmy Dean Fully Cooked Turkey Sausage crumbles (much healthier than regular sausage crumbles)
4oz can diced green chiles
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
low carb/wheat flour tortillas
Salsa - optional

Directions
-In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Add eggs and scramble lightly with a spatula. Cook until they are almost set and then stir occasionally. Add salt and pepper to taste.
-Once eggs are scrambled and fluffy, add the sausage crumbles and green chiles. Stir gently but don't break up the eggs too much.
-You want the eggs to look a little wet still so they are not overdone and dry. Remove from heat.
-Add 1/4 of the mixture to a flour tortilla and top with salsa before wrapping like a burrito
-serve hot

Enjoy! :)

P.S. You could enjoy this on top of some wheat toast if you don't have tortillas. It is delicious either way.
