Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a skillet, scramble eggs until just set. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Lay out tortillas and fill each with scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, a sprinkle of cheese, and green onions. Roll tightly and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
- In the same skillet, cook the sausage for the gravy until browned. Stir in flour and cook for 1–2 minutes.
- Slowly whisk in milk, stirring constantly, until thickened. Season with salt and black pepper.
- Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the enchiladas in the baking dish. Top with remaining cheese.
- Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve hot, with extra gravy spooned over each portion.
Variations:
- Spicy Twist: Use hot breakfast sausage and add cayenne pepper to the gravy.
- Veggie Boost: Mix sautéed bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach into the eggs.
- Cheese Swap: Try pepper jack for spice or smoked gouda for richness.
- Southwest Style: Add salsa or diced green chilies inside the tortillas before rolling.
Tips:
- Cook the scrambled eggs just until soft—they’ll finish in the oven.
- Use freshly grated cheese for better melting and flavor.
- Make ahead by assembling enchiladas the night before, then bake in the morning with fresh gravy.
- Serve with hash browns or fresh fruit for a complete brunch spread.
