• Ready to dive into cooking? Let’s break it down step by step.

Step 1: Cook the Sausage

• In a skillet over medium heat, add the sausage. Use a wooden spoon to break it apart into small crumbles. Cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Don’t rush! Those crispy bits make all the difference.

Step 2: Sauté Vegetables

• Once the sausage is cooked, add the diced onion, bell peppers, and minced garlic to the pan. Season with salt, pepper, and the Italian herb blend if you’re using it. Cook until the vegetables are tender, roughly 5 minutes. Your kitchen will smell amazing!

Step 3: Scramble the Eggs

• In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs. Add the egg mixture to the pan with the sausage and vegetables. Cook, gently stirring, until the eggs are scrambled and just set. This won’t take long, perhaps 3 to 4 minutes. You want them fluffy, not rubbery.

Step 4: Prepare the Tortillas

• Heat the tortillas in a separate pan or in the microwave to make them pliable. Brush both sides with melted butter for an added touch of richness.

Step 5: Assemble the Taquitos

• Take a tortilla and place a generous amount of your sausage, veggie, and egg mixture at one end. Sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese on top, and roll it tightly. Repeat this with remaining ingredients.

Step 6: Cook the Taquitos

• In a clean skillet, add a little butter and place the taquitos seam side down. Cook them on medium heat until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. This adds a delightful crunch that complements the soft inside.
