Description
These burritos are simple to make with their one-pan preparation and reheat in under two minutes for a hearty, flavor-packed breakfast on busy mornings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb breakfast sausage
- 1/2 yellow onion, finely diced
- 1/2 red pepper, cored and finely diced
- 12 eggs
- A few dashes of hot sauce (optional)
- 8 burrito-sized tortillas (I prefer these)
- 2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- *you can also sun red pepper for 1 cup chopped spinach or other vegetable of your liking.
Instructions
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium high heat. Cook sausage until browned and broken into pieces. Drain and return to pan.
- Add onion and pepper to the pan and saute until soft, about 3-5 minutes. Mean while crack the eggs into a large bowl and slightly beat.
- Reduce heat to medium and egg eggs, Stir consistently until eggs are cooked through.
- Add hot sauce and mix in (optional)
- Remove from heat and allow egg scramble mixture to completely cool.
- Once cooled, add about 1/3 cup of the filling onto a burrito. Sprinkle on 1/4 cup of the cheese then roll tightly. Place of baking sheet. Repeat until all burritos are rolled.
- Place baking sheet in freezer for at least an hour, until frozen solid, then transfer the burritos to a freezer-safe ziplock bag or individually wrap each burrito in plastic wrap before returning to the freezer.
- To reheat: Remove burrito from plastic wrap and loosely wrap in a paper towel. Heat for 45 seconds in the microwave, flip over and heat for another 45 seconds. (Reheating times may vary slightly based on your microwave)
