Enjoy a tasty twist on breakfast with these crispy and savory breakfast egg rolls. They're filled with scrambled eggs, sausage, cheese, and veggies, all rolled up in a crispy wrapper. Perfect for a hearty morning meal!

Ingredients: 4 large eggs. 4 egg roll wrappers. 1/2 cup cooked sausage, crumbled. 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese. 1/4 cup diced bell peppers. 1/4 cup diced onions. Salt and pepper to taste. Cooking oil for frying.

Instructions: Crack the eggs into a bowl and add salt and pepper to taste. Place the pan on medium-high heat and add a little oil. The diced onions and bell peppers should be cooked until they're soft. Break up the sausage and add it to the pan. Cook until it's hot all the way through. Add the scrambled eggs to the pan and stir them around until they're cooked but still a little runny. Place the egg roll wrappers on the counter and put some of the egg mixture in the middle of each one. Add shredded cheddar cheese on top. Cover the filling with the wrapper's sides, then roll it up like a burrito and seal the edges with a little water. Over medium-high heat, heat enough cooking oil in a different pan to fry. Carefully put the egg rolls into the hot oil and fry them until they're golden brown and crispy. To make sure they cook evenly, flip them over every so often. Each side should take three to four minutes. Take the egg rolls out of the oil and lay them on paper towels to drain. Hot breakfast egg rolls with your favorite dipping sauce are a great treat.
