It was in the late seventies, shortly after
McDonald's had introduced the Egg McMuffin, that the food giant
realized the potential of a quick, drive-thru breakfast. Soon, the
company had developed several breakfast selections, including the Big
Breakfast with eggs, hash browns, and sausage. Eventually one out of
every four breakfasts served out of the home would be served at
McDonald's -- an impressive statistic indeed. The newest kid on the
McBreakfast block is this morning meal in a tortilla, first offered on
the menu in 1991.
4 ounces breakfast sausage
1 tablespoon minced white onion
1/2 tablespoon minced mild green chilies (canned)
4 eggs, beaten
salt
pepper
4 8-inch flour tortillas
4 slices American cheese
On the side
salsa
1. Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Crumble the sausage into the pan,
then add the onion. SautΘ the sausage and onion for 3 to 4 minutes or
until the sausage is browned.
2. Add the mild green chilies and continue to sautΘ for 1 minute.
3. Pour the beaten eggs into the pan and scramble the eggs with the
sausage and vegetables. Add a dash of salt and pepper.
4. Heat up the tortillas by steaming them in the microwave in moist
paper towels or a tortilla steamer for 20 to 30 seconds.
5. Break each slice of cheese in half and position two halves end-to-end
in the middle of each tortilla.
6. To make the burrito, spoon 1/4 of the egg filling onto the cheese in
a tortilla. Fold one side of the tortilla over the filling, then fold
up about two inches of one end. Fold over the other side of the
tortilla to complete the burrito (one end should remain open). Serve hot with salsa on the side, if
desired. (http://www.topsecretrecipes.com)
