How do you make Santa Fe Breakfast Taquitos?
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Spray a baking sheet with Pam cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium bowl combine breakfast sausage, eggs, blacks beans, cilantro, red pepper, avocado, and jalapeno. Lightly toss the ingredients together.
Working with one tortilla at a time, add egg mixture and top with cheese in the center of each tortilla. Roll up the tortilla tightly over the filling, by rolling from the bottom to the top, until the whole tortilla is rolled up.
Place on prepared baking sheet, make sure you place seam side down. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
Once all of the tortillas are rolled up and placed on the pan, spray tortillas with Pam Olive Oil Cooking Spray, this allows them to get that nice golden color.
Place the pan in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until cheese has melted.
Serve immediately. Drizzle with salsa or our favorite Colorado Chile Sauce.

Taquitos for breakfast are a great idea.
I LOVE that cooking tip about spraying PAM on the tortillas prior to baking. Such a great way to crisp ’em up without dousing them in oil. And these breakfast taquitos look incredible! I adore Mexican-inspired breakfasts (chilaquiles, burritos, huevos rancheros) and these taquitos now top that list 🙂
