Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Enchiladas:

  • 8 large flour tortillas
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage (or bacon)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded hash browns (optional)

For the Sauce:

  • 2 cups half-and-half or whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain excess grease.
  3. Prepare the Filling: Whisk eggs with milk, salt, and pepper. Scramble the eggs until just set. Remove from heat and mix in cooked sausage, half of each cheese, green onions, and hash browns if using.
  4. Assemble the Enchiladas: Spoon the filling into each tortilla, roll them up, and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  5. Make the Sauce: Whisk together half-and-half, flour, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Pour over the tortillas.
  6. Bake: Cover and refrigerate overnight or bake immediately for 40–45 minutes until golden and bubbly. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top during the last 10 minutes of baking. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Make ahead the night before for a stress-free morning.
  • Swap sausage for chorizo or add diced bell peppers for extra flavor.
