Breakfast Burritos

8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
8 ounces bulk pork sausage
2 large baking potatoes, peeled and shredded
1 medium-size green bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup chopped onion
8 large eggs
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
Taco sauce for accompaniment

Wrap tortillas in aluminum foil and bake at 350*F (175*C) for 12 to 15 minutes or until heated.

Brown sausage in skillet, stirring until it crumbles; remove sausage from skillet and set aside.

Drain the drippings and add the potato, green pepper, and onion to skillet; cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until tender. Add the butter, when melted add the eggs, salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until eggs are firm, but still moist. Remove from heat; stir in reserved sausage.

Work with 1 tortilla at a time, keeping remaining tortillas covered and warm. Place about 3/4 cup egg mixture onto each tortilla. Roll up tightly, and place, seam-side down, in a lightly greased 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 375*F (190*C) for 10 minutes. Remove cover and sprinkle with cheese, cover, and bake an additional 5 minutes or until cheese melts. Serve with taco sauce.
