Description
Make a batch of these breakfast burritos ahead of time and freeze them for quick morning meals.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 large flour tortillas
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound breakfast sausage, casings removed
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup salsa (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Cook the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain off excess grease.
- Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet with the sausage. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the sausage and vegetables. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring gently until the eggs are set. Do not overcook.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted.
- Lay out the flour tortillas. Spoon an equal amount of the egg and sausage mixture down the center of each tortilla.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up to create a burrito.
- Wrap each burrito tightly in plastic wrap, then wrap again in aluminum foil.
- Place the wrapped burritos in a freezer-safe bag or container. Freeze for up to 3 months.
- To reheat, remove foil and plastic wrap. Wrap the burrito in a damp paper towel and microwave for 2-3 minutes, turning halfway, or bake in a 350 degree oven until heated through.
Notes
- You can substitute ground turkey or black beans for the sausage to change the flavor.
- For best results when freezing, make sure the filling is completely cooled before wrapping.
- If you like a spicier burrito, add diced jalapeños with the onion and pepper.
