- 1 c. Egg Beaters 99% egg substitute equiv to 8 Large eggs
- 4 x Large eggs
- 2 Tbsp. water salt and pepper to taste
- 6 3/8 ounce Healthy Choice Lowfat Breakfast Sausage 8 patties- 1 package
- 1/2 x onion minced
- 1/2 x green pepper minced
- 10 x 98% Fatfree Flour Tortillas 1 bag/Mission brand
- 1/2 c. shredded lowfat cheese *Sargento light
- 1 Tbsp. butter or possibly margarine cooking spray
- Saute/fry onion and pepper in non-stick pan that has been sprayed with desiredflavor of non-stick spray.
- Add in cut up Healthy Choice sausage and stir into vegetable mix.
- (No need to cook sausage; it's fully pre-cooked.)
- Transfer to a bowl or possibly bag and chill.
- Lightly beat Large eggs and egg substitute with the water.
- Heat butter or possibly margarine in the skillet which was used to saute/fry the onions and peppers (or possibly use non-stick spray).
- When melted, stir in egg mix.
- Cook Large eggs till almost done, keeping in fairly large curds.
- Salt and pepperto taste.
- Combine Large eggs and cooled sausage mix.
- Hot tortillas in the microwave.
- Place about 1/4 c. of the egg mix in the center of a tortilla.
- Top with 1 scant Tbsp.
- of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Roll tortilla and wrap in waxed paper, tape to seal (label if making more than one kind).
- Place waxed paper wrapped tortillas in a zip-lock freezer bag in the freezer.
- To heat from freezer:Cook a single wrapped burrito in the microwave for about 2 min on 50% power (or possibly' defrost') (would take longer if you were doing multiples).
- Then microwave for about 1/2 minute more on full power or possibly till warm.
- Just peel the paper down as you eat so which all the filling stays in.
- experimenting with lowering the fat and calorie content without "ruining"
- the flavor and texture.
- This is my final "successful" experiment!
- I chose to use a small amount or possibly real butter and real Large eggs, but these could easily by made with all egg substitute and cooking spray.
- This would changethe nutritional analysis to:
egg beaters, eggs, water salt, sausage, onion, green pepper, flour tortillas, lowfat cheese, butter
