Ingredients
* 1/2 pound sausage (hot, if you like spicy)
* 1 onion, chopped
* 1 (4 oz.) can diced green chilies
* 10 eggs
* 1/3 cup milk
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions
1. Combine sausage, onion, and chilies in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir and cook until sausage is crumbled and browned and onion tender (about 10-15 minutes). Drain off fat.
2. Combine eggs, milk, salt and pepper in a bowl and beat until eggs are frothy.
3. Pour eggs into meat mixture in skillet and cook over medium-high heat, scraping pan bottom often, until eggs are set (about 3 minutes for soft - 5 for firm).

5. Place burritos, seams down, in a suitable sized pan; cover with foil and bake in a 200 degrees F. oven until cheese is melted (15 to 20 minutes).
6. Remove cover and sprinkle remaining cheese over top of burritos. Return to oven, uncovered, until the cheese is melted.
Serve Hot!
