Heat a large skillet over medium heat and scramble the eggs. Mix 1 can (4 oz) diced green chilies and reserved sausages into the scrambled eggs. If some of your guests don’t want chilies, add them when you are putting the burritos together (as you’ll see in the photos).
Divide the reserved potatoes evenly amongst 4 burrito-sized flour tortillas, lining them up down the center with 1-inch left at either end.
Top the potatoes with the egg mixture.
Grate 1/2 cup (4 oz) each of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses.
Sprinkle half of the cheese over the eggs.
Fold the two ends in and then wrap the two sides over the egg and cheese mixture. Place each burrito on a separate plate, folded side down. Pour 1 can (10 oz) green or red enchilada sauce over top of the burritos and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Of course, you can use homemade enchilada sauce if you’re feeling a little more ambitious.
Place each plated burrito under the broiler for 3 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbling.
Place a dollop of guacamole and sour cream on top, if desired. Serve immediately.

That looks like one AMAZING breakfast burrito.
That is a bummer that your dad lives so far away. We have been really blessed with our families living so close. My parents and my in-laws both live within 15 minutes of us.

That looks ALMOST good enough to run 20 miles for.
I say almost because if I ran 20 miles you'd have to serve it to me through a feeding tube in the emergency room.
Really though, wow and YUM.
Cookin' Canuck says
LOL, Nick. Running 20 miles definitely isn't a prerequisite to eating this!
kiss my spatula says
