Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Easy Make-Ahead Breakfast Enchiladas.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, grab a large 9x13 inch baking dish and give it a light spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking—set it aside for now.
Step 3
In a small frying pan, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat for about 30 seconds.
Step 4
Once the oil is shimmering, add in the Jimmy Dean sausage.
Step 5
Cook it for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently to break it into small, delicious pieces.
Step 6
When the sausage is nicely browned, drain any excess fat and set it aside to cool a bit.
Step 7
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage with some fluffy scrambled eggs, a cup of shredded cheese, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 8
Give it a good mix until everything is well combined.
Step 9
Now, take about 1/4 cup of this savory sausage and egg mixture and place it right in the center of each tortilla.
Step 10
Gently roll the tortillas up, tucking in the sides as you go, and place them seam-side down in your prepared baking dish.
Step 11
Once all your tortillas are snugly in the dish, pour the enchilada sauce evenly over the top, letting it soak into those tasty rolls.
Step 12
Finish it off by sprinkling the remaining cup of cheese over the sauce, creating a cheesy blanket that will melt beautifully.
Step 13
Pop the dish into your preheated oven and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, filling your kitchen with an irresistible aroma.
Step 14
After baking, let the dish cool for about 5 minutes—this will make serving easier and give you a moment to savor the anticipation.
Step 15
Enjoy your delicious creation!.
