Ingredients

1bunchgreen onions, white parts only, chopped
• 2tablespoonsbutter
• 5linksfrozen turkey sausage (such as Jimmy Dean®)
• 5slicescooked bacon, cut into pieces
• ⅓cupall-purpose flour
• 2 ½cupsmilk
• 3teaspoonsground black pepper
• 1pinchcayenne pepper
• 4(9 inch) whole wheat flour tortillas
• 8thin slices Cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

Spray a large skillet with cooking spray; warm over medium-high heat. Whisk eggs together in a bowl. Pour into the skillet; cook and stir until eggs are set, about 5 minutes.

Arrange potato nuggets in a single layer on a baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 17 to 19 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine green onions and butter in a cold saucepan.

Remove sausage links from plastic pouches. Place on a microwave-safe plate and cover with a paper towel. Microwave until heated through, 60 to 65 seconds.

Cut sausages into small pieces and add to the onion-butter mixture; add bacon. Heat mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until butter is melted. Stir slowly, adding a few spoonfuls of flour at a time, until mixture becomes a paste. Slowly drizzle in milk while mixing constantly. Reduce heat to low; cook and stir until a thick gravy is formed, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in black pepper and cayenne pepper.

Lay a tortilla on a microwave-safe plate. Place 2 slices Cheddar cheese down the middle of the tortilla. Spoon 1/4 of the scrambled eggs over the cheese. Add about 5 potato nuggets. Microwave until heated through, about 20 seconds. Spoon the gravy down the middle of the burrito. Microwave for 20 to 30 seconds more. Roll 1 of the opposing edges around the filling while burrito is still warm. Assemble 3 more burritos with remaining ingredients.

The directions for cooking the sausage are based on the particular brand mentioned. Follow instructions on the box if using a different brand.
