Tonight for dinner I made a couple of sausage and egg wraps as follows:
I cooked up a couple of breakfast sausage patties, drained, then scrambled
three large eggs. In the meanwhile, I spread two low-carb tortilla shells
(purchased at WalMart) with about 1/4 cup of shredded mild cheddar cheese
and nuked for 45 seconds until melted. I crumbled the sausage and divvied
it up between the two tortillas, then did the same with the scrambled eggs.
Rolled them up wrap-style. Voil?! On the side, I ate about 1-1/2 cups of
broccoli/cauliflower mix with melted cheddar cheese. Very filling and
satisfying; almost more than I could eat!
Absolutely delicious dinner -- low carb and a near perfect proportion of fat
to protein for my plan, with plenty of fiber.
These would also make a great quick breakfast if prepared the night before
and microwaved for about 30 seconds in the morning!

Hey Peter! WHile your on your sausage kick try frying up the ground
sausage like you do hamburger, toss in some coarse cut cabbage, a
sprinkle of pepper and stir fry it. Towards the end when your cabbage
gets tender, throw in a half stick of butter ( helps to thicken the
juices the comes out from the cooked cabbage) I then scoop onto plate
and smother in tabasco. Even without the Tabasco it is DELISH!!!!!

i use the LC tortillas and make something similar for breakfast. I chop up 2
pre-cooked sausage patties (i buy them that way), mix with an egg in a
microwavce-safe container, nuke for about 1.5 minutes and get similar
results. I usually top with some Taco Bell hot sace--low carb, high flavor.

I love making a scrambled egg and top it with bacon (I buy the already
cooked for convenience) add a slice of baby Swiss cheese. I lay the tortilla
on hot pan with a bit of butter and fold it over with the stuff on it. Also
yummy with salsa, avocado and sour cream if one has time in the morning:)
