Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb turkey sausage, casing removed
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 small bell pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup diced onion

- Optional: salsa and avocado slices for serving
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add turkey sausage and cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spoon.
- Add diced bell pepper and onion to the skillet with the sausage. Cook until vegetables soften, about 3-4 minutes.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the sausage and veggies. Cook, stirring gently, until eggs are just set.
- Stir in chopped spinach and shredded cheddar cheese until spinach wilts and cheese melts.
- Warm tortillas briefly in a pan or microwave to make them pliable.
- Divide the egg and sausage mixture evenly among the tortillas, then roll them up tightly into burritos.
- Serve warm with salsa and avocado slices if desired.
Notes
For added flavor, try adding a sprinkle of smoked paprika or hot sauce to the egg mixture before cooking.
