Using a wooden spoon break up the sausage as it cooks.  Cook until crumbled and no longer pink.  Add potatoes and the rest of the spice mixture and cook until potatoes are a golden brown.  Place flour tortillas on a cookie sheet and spoon the sausage mixture onto half of the tortilla (at this point you can add scrambled eggs on top of the sausage and potatoes if desired)  Top with salsa and mexican blend shredded cheese.  Fold tortilla over and place in the oven, bake for 15 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted.  Cut in half serve with salsa and sour cream.
