Prepare Southwest Guacamole and Fresh Tomato Salsa; reserve. Cook and stir the sausage, onion and the bell pepper strips in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sausage is done, about 10 minutes; drain and reserve. Heat 1 Tbls of margarine in a skillet over medium heat until hot and bubbly. Pour eggs into skillet. As the eggs begin to set at the bottom and sides, gently lift cooked portions with a spatula so that the thin uncooked portion can flow to the bottom. Avoid constant stirring. Cook until the eggs are thickened throughout, but still moist, about 5 minutes. Heat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spoon about 1/4 cup sausage mixture onto each of the tortillas; top each with about 1/4 cup of the eggs and 2 Tbls of the cheese mixture. Fold tortillas into halves. Arrange 5 assembled tacos in ungreased jelly roll pan 15 1/2 X 10 1/2 X 1-inches; brush with melted margarine. Bake until light golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes. Repeat with the remaining tacos. Serve with the guacamole and salsa.
