Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 8 flour tortillas (soft taco size)
- 1 lb breakfast sausage (or turkey sausage)
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 large eggs
- ½ cup milk
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
- ½ cup sour cream
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp onion powder
Optional Toppings
- Green onions
- Salsa
- Avocado
- Jalapeños
Instructions
- Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and crumbly. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside to cool slightly.
- Scramble the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper. Pour the mixture into a skillet and scramble until the eggs are just set. Stir in half of the shredded cheddar cheese to melt slightly.
- Assemble the Enchiladas: Lay out the flour tortillas and fill each with a portion of the scrambled eggs and cooked sausage. Roll each tortilla up tightly and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish to prevent unrolling during cooking.
- Prepare the Sauce: In a separate bowl, mix together the canned cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup, sour cream, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth and well combined.
- Add the Sauce and Cheese: Pour the creamy sauce evenly over the enchiladas in the baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the top for a delicious melted finish.
- Bake in Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the enchiladas uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
- Instant Pot Alternative: For pressure cooking, place the baking dish on a trivet inside the Instant Pot. Add 1 cup of water to the pot. Cover the dish with foil to prevent water from dripping onto the enchiladas. Pressure cook on high for 10 minutes and perform a quick release at the end.
- Serve and Garnish: Carefully remove the enchiladas from the oven or Instant Pot. Garnish with optional toppings such as chopped green onions, salsa, avocado slices, and jalapeños before serving for added freshness and flavor.
Notes
- You can substitute turkey sausage for a leaner option.
- Use either cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup depending on your preference.
- Make sure to grease your baking dish well to prevent sticking.
- If baking in the oven, check at 25 minutes for doneness to avoid overcooking.
- Optional toppings add great texture and flavor—feel free to customize.
