Ingrédients

8 pers
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 red bell pepper · diced
  • 1 small white onion · diced
  • 2 cup baby spinach
  • 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
  • 6 large eggs · beaten
  • 1 packet diced green chiles · 4-ounce can
  • 1 packet pinto beans · 15-ounce can, rinsed and drained
  • 1 1/2 cup red enchilada sauce
  • 8-10 medium flour tortillas
  • 2 cup Mexican-blend cheese

Préparation

  1. 1

    Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the bell pepper and onion for 5 minutes until soft, then stir in the spinach until wilted.

  2. 2

    Add the breakfast sausage to the skillet, cooking for 6–8 minutes until browned and crumbled. Drain any excess grease.

  3. 3

    Stir in the green chiles and pinto beans until thoroughly combined.

  4. 4

    Pour in the beaten eggs and stir frequently for 1–2 minutes, until lightly scrambled but still soft. Remove the pan from the heat.

  5. 5

    Fold 1 1/2 cups of the cheese into the filling mixture and season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Preheat your oven to 190°C. Spread 1/4 cup of enchilada sauce across the bottom of a 13x9-inch baking dish.

  7. 7

    Divide the filling among the tortillas, rolling each one tightly and placing them seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.

  8. 8

    Cover the rolls with the remaining enchilada sauce and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese on top.

  9. 9

    Bake uncovered for 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
