Learn how to make delicious Country Gravy Breakfast Enchiladas. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Gathering your ingredients is like preparing for a little adventure in your kitchen. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage
  • 8 flour tortillas (8-inch size)
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk (for the gravy)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Feel free to substitute the cheddar cheese with your favorite blend, or try turkey sausage for a lighter version. I love experimenting with different cheeses after attending various food festivals and discovering new flavors!

Instructions

Let’s dive into the fun part! Cooking is a dance of flavors and textures, and here’s how you can bring this dish to life:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Remove the sausage and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, whisk together the eggs and 1/4 cup of milk, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until softly scrambled, then remove from heat and set aside.
  4. To assemble the enchiladas, lay out the tortillas and evenly distribute the eggs, sausage, and 1 1/2 cups of cheese among them. Roll each tortilla tightly and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
  5. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour, cooking for about 1 minute until golden brown.
  6. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Add the black pepper, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
  7. Pour the country gravy over the enchiladas, covering them completely. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving. Enjoy the warmth and comfort of a meal made with love!
