Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 8 flour tortillas (soft taco size)
  • 1 lb breakfast sausage or turkey sausage
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 8 large eggs
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Sauce

  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp onion powder

Optional Toppings

  • Green onions, sliced
  • Salsa
  • Avocado slices
  • Jalapeños

Instructions

  1. Cook the sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and crumbly. Drain excess fat and set aside.
  2. Scramble the eggs: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper. Pour into a heated skillet and scramble until just set. Stir in half of the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and combined.
  3. Assemble the enchiladas: Spoon the scrambled eggs and cooked sausage mixture evenly onto each flour tortilla. Roll each tortilla tightly and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
  4. Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the cream soup, sour cream, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth.
  5. Pour sauce over enchiladas: Evenly pour the creamy soup mixture over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish.
  6. Add cheese topping: Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the enchiladas.
  7. Bake the enchiladas: Oven method: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes until bubbly and heated through.
  8. Alternate Instant Pot method: Place the baking dish on a trivet inside the Instant Pot with 1 cup of water. Cover the dish tightly with foil. Pressure cook on high for 10 minutes then perform a quick release.
  9. Garnish and serve: Top with optional green onions, salsa, avocado slices, and jalapeños before serving warm.

Notes

  • You can substitute turkey sausage for a leaner option.
  • Choose cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup based on your preference.
  • Customize toppings to taste, adding more heat with jalapeños or freshness with avocado.
  • For a crispier top, broil the enchiladas for 2-3 minutes after baking in the oven.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
