🌯 Breakfast Burritos
These **Breakfast Burritos** are loaded with fluffy eggs, savory sausage, crispy potatoes, and melted cheese — all wrapped in a warm tortilla. Perfect for busy mornings, and they freeze beautifully for quick grab-and-go breakfasts!
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 lb (225g) breakfast sausage (or bacon)
- 1 cup frozen hash browns or diced potatoes (thawed)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
- 1/4 cup diced onion (optional)
- 1/4 cup diced bell pepper (optional)
- 6 large flour tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp butter or oil (for cooking)
Instructions
- Cook sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain fat and set aside.
- Cook veggies: In the same skillet, add onion and bell pepper. Sauté 3–4 minutes until soft. Add potatoes and cook 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy.
- Scramble eggs: In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour into skillet and scramble until just set.
- Mix everything: Return sausage to the skillet. Stir in cooked potatoes and eggs. Heat through. Remove from heat and stir in cheese.
- Fill tortillas: Warm tortillas slightly for flexibility. Divide mixture evenly among tortillas and place down the center.
- Wrap burritos: Fold in the sides, then roll up tightly from the bottom.
- Optional - Freeze: Wrap each burrito in parchment paper, then in foil or a freezer bag. Freeze for up to 3 months.
- To reheat: Microwave 2–3 minutes (remove parchment), or bake at 375°F for 25–30 minutes (from frozen).
Tip: Add salsa, avocado, or sour cream before serving for extra flavor!
