Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 jalapeno minced
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 2 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 10 eggs
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 cup cooked tater tots
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 10 fajita-size flour tortillas

Instructions
 

  • Place sausage in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Crumble it as it cooks. When it is about halfway cooked, add the onion and jalapeno.
  • Remove 1 cup of the sausage, onion, and jalapeno mixture with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  • Place the skillet back over the heat and sprinkle the flour on the remaining sausage mixture. Cook and stir for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the milk and simmer until thickened. Remove from heat.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  • Whisk eggs and season them with salt. Melt butter in a nonstick pan and scramble the eggs. Remove them from the heat when they are still slightly undercooked.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the 1 cup of sausage mixture with the tater tots, the scrambled eggs, and half the Pepper Jack and cheddar cheese.
  • Place about 1/2 cup of filling down the center of each tortilla. Roll up and place seam side down in the prepared baking dish.
  • Pour sausage gravy on top. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes.
