Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until it’s browned and cooked through, breaking it apart into crumbles with a spatula as it cooks. Once cooked, remove the sausage from the skillet and drain excess grease on a paper towel-lined plate. Allow it to cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic (if using), and salt and pepper to taste. Mix until well combined.
- Once the sausage has cooled, add it to the cream cheese mixture and stir until evenly distributed.
- Lay out a low-carb tortilla on a clean surface. Spread a layer of the sausage and cream cheese mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Starting from one edge, tightly roll up the tortilla with the filling inside, forming a log shape.
- Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the log into pinwheels, each about 1 inch thick.
- Place the pinwheels on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pinwheels are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
