- 1/2 lb hot breakfast sausage

- 1 1/2 cups green chile sauce
- 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese
- 6 tortillas
Cook sausage over high heat in a large skillet until browned. Break sausage up into small bits while cooking. Remove from pan and put in a bowl lined with a paper towel.
Add hash browns to the pan with the remaining grease from the sausage. Stir around to coat the potatoes and then allow to cook so that they become golden in color and slightly crispy. Be sure to stir often so that the potatoes don't stick to the pan. Remove potatoes from pan and place in a medium mixing bowl.
Crack the eggs into a bowl and scramble with a fork. Season with salt and pepper. Add either butter or cooking spray to the pan then add in the eggs. Add the can of green chilies and stir to combine. Stir the eggs around until cooked all the way through. Remove from pan and add to the bowl with the potatoes.
Add sausage, cheese, and green chile sauce to the egg mixture. Stir until all combined. Warm tortillas for 20 seconds in the microwave. Divide the mixture between the 6 tortillas by putting 2 heaping spoonfuls of filling into the center of each tortilla so that it is in the shape of a log down the middle. Leave some of the tortilla at the end. Fold up each end of the tortilla over the egg mixture and then roll into a burrito.
Wrap tortilla in aluminum foil and store in the refrigerator or freezer. To reheat remove from the aluminum foil and microwave for 1:30 from the refrigerator or 3:00 when frozen (may need to adjust depending on microwave)
