Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture:
- 8 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Filling:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup cooked breakfast sausage or crumbled bacon
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup diced bell peppers
- ½ cup diced red onion
- 1 cup cooked hash browns or roasted potatoes
- 4 large flour tortillas (burrito size)
- salsa or hot sauce for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced bell peppers and onion, and sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently, until eggs are scrambled and cooked through. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Assembly: Lay out the tortillas and divide the scrambled eggs, cooked sausage or bacon, cheese, and hash browns evenly among them. Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll tightly into a burrito.
- Storage: To store, wrap each burrito in foil or parchment, then place in an airtight container or zip-top freezer bag. Refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Reheating: To reheat, microwave refrigerated burritos for 1–2 minutes or frozen burritos for 3–4 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Notes
- Customize with spinach, black beans, or hot sauce inside.
- Use low-carb or whole wheat tortillas if preferred.
- You can prep a big batch and freeze for easy grab-and-go breakfasts.
