===== Notes from the Author =====
  * Feel free to swap flour tortillas for corn tortillas. You will get more breakfast burritos using corn tortillas because they are smaller. 
  * Feel free to add onions, spinach, bell peppers, and mushrooms to the burrito mixture. Add the veggies to the skillet when the sausage or hash browns cook to soften them and reduce moisture. You could even add a can of diced tomatoes and green chilies to the mixture if you want to kick these up a notch!
  * This casserole freezes well. Make the casserole up to the point of refrigerating. Cover the casserole dish and freeze it. To bake from frozen, thaw completely in the refrigerator and bake as directed below. 
  * You can also freeze this casserole after it has been baked. Cover the casserole and thaw and reheat when ready to serve. You can reheat the casserole in the oven or microwave. 
  * For leftovers, wrap the individual breakfast burritos in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. That way you can pull one breakfast burrito out of the freezer for a quick breakfast. Just pop in the microwave for a few minutes and breakfast is done!

===== Notes from Shirlee =====
  * Couldn't get 10 tortillas to fit in the dish, so just used 8 tortillas for 4 people.
