"Don't wait for a weekend brunch to have these, they make a wonderful light dinner also! Italian sausage or the small pork breakfast sausages can be used for this recipe, just remember to remove the casings before cooking them meat. Keep your cream cheese cold so that it can be cut into small cubes. The exact amounts don't really matter for this recipe, you can adjust to taste. This is REALLY GOOD!!!!"

  1. This is just excellent with so much flavor even with some of my changes to make this with a little less calories. First the changes, I used 2% milk instead of the shipping cream, left out the butter and used just a little of the grease from the sausage, left out the cream cheese and didn't use the sour cream as we prefer the salsa. Even with those changes the end result was just excellent and one that is fairly easy to make. Would be great when you have your kids visit to give them something just a little different. I used 3 eggs for the two tacos and adjusted the remaining ingredients for 2. I also heated the tortillas in a pan while cooking the egg mixture so they were ready to serve. I only had the 6 in flour tortillas so had to trim around the edges to fit the smaller tortilla. Very very filling. Thank Kit. Made for My 3 Chefs. 2013
