Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather a large skillet and a baking dish.
  2. Cook the sausage over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
  3. Whisk the eggs in a bowl. Pour into the skillet with the sausage and scramble for 3-4 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat and add cheese and hash browns. Fold together until melted and well combined.
  5. Lay tortillas flat and spoon approximately 1/4 cup of filling onto each. Roll tightly and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
  6. Melt butter in the skillet over medium heat. Whisk in flour to create a roux, then gradually add milk, whisking until thickened.
  7. Pour sausage gravy over the enchiladas and bake for 25-30 minutes until bubbling and golden.
  8. Remove from oven, let cool for 5 minutes, garnish with herbs if desired, and serve warm.
