Scrambled eggs, cheese and sausage links rolled and baked inside a corn tortilla. These Egg and Sausage Breakfast Taquitos are simple and delicious!
One of my goals for this blog is to provide meal ideas for “real people” that use real ingredients. I don’t share things that are too fancy or difficult to make and I like to use real, quality ingredients. If you see it published on my blog then you can be sure my family already taste tested it and gave it five stars!
I like to mix things up at night, which often means making breakfast for dinner or “brinner”, using all-natural breakfast meats from Jones Dairy Farm.
One of my favorite products is their fully cooked sausage links. They have pork, chicken and turkey links and not only are they delicious, all you have to do is reheat them. They’re great for a super fast breakfast or brinner.
You can add them to your favorite soup, or pasta. (I’ve added the turkey links to this tortellini soup and it was delicious!)
JonesBrinner.com has hundreds of awesome Brinner recipe ideas and how-to’s, like the best ways to cook bacon and how to make a hashbrown pizza crust.
I used pork sausage links in these yummy Egg and Sausage Breakfast Taquitos and my family devoured them. They’re so incredibly easy too.
Just scramble some eggs, add some cheese and a breakfast sausage link (and some spinach if you want to incorporate a veggie), and then roll them up in a corn tortilla and bake them. I like to dip them in my favorite homemade salsa. Who can resist breakfast for dinner, am I right?!

I made these, wrapped in foil and froze them for camping. We just popped a few foil wrapped on the camp stove griddle in the mornings to heat them up. I liked them much better with a slight char and they would have been good heated by camp fire but we didn’t light fires in the mornings this trip. *When making them I melted a bit of cheese over the corn tortillas in the microwave before rolling. Cold tortillas will split. :)– love that they taste good and are super easy. Great for breakfast while camping.

Could you post a link for the tortillas you use? I have made this recipe several times and any flour tortilla I use is so thick and looks nothing like what you have used, look thinner and flaky! Thank you!!

She’s using white corn tortillas…that’s the difference. They do look like flour tortillas, though, don’t they?

“Brinner”? Um…not a real word. Other than that…good idea.
Lauren Allen says
Brinner is a slang way of referring to “breakfast for dinner”.
Holly says
Brinner is a word since Jerry Seinfeld coined it in the 90s. Also see, “dunch” (dinner for lunch) and “sninner” ( snacks for dinner, like a cheese plate). You do you, boo.

DEB says
DELISH ! EASY AND SO YUMMY, GREAT TO MAKE A BUNCH AND HAVE IN THE FREEZER ! I HAVE ALREADY PASSED THIS ONE TO SEVERAL FRIENDS AND FAMILY… THANKS !
Carly says
I made some of these today and were great and something different for breakfast. Do these stay crispy reheated in the microwave the next day? Or is it best to do it in a pan on the stove for a few minutes instead?
Lauren Allen says
A pan on the stove would be ideal!
