Breakfast Beef Sausage is a favorite around here. We like to fuel our days with protein and starting the day with beef only sets us all up for success. This recipe is super easy and very vestral. We also batch cook it and we can stretch two pounds of sausage through the week.

Our Favorite ways to use the Breakfast Beef Sausage

We love to make breakfast burritos with eggs and cheese and of course Breakfast Beef Sausage.
On days we don’t have flour tortillas made up, we make easy Breakfast Tacos. All you do is heat up corn tortillas, scramble some eggs and fill the tortilla. Super easy!
We also use it in our favorite New Mexican Quiche.
This sausage is also delicious in our Breakfast Cups.
