Breakfast Burrito

 

Ingredients:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or any preferred cheese)
  • 1/4 cup cooked breakfast sausage, bacon, or ham (optional)
  • 1/4 cup diced veggies (bell peppers, onions, spinach, etc.)
  • 1/4 cup black beans (optional for extra protein and fiber)
  • 1 large flour tortilla
  • Salsa or hot sauce (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon butter or oil for cooking
  • 1/4 avocado, sliced (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the fillings:
    If using sausage, bacon, or ham, cook them in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  2. Sauté the veggies:
    In the same skillet, add a little oil or butter and sauté the diced veggies (like bell peppers, onions, or spinach) until softened. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. Scramble the eggs:
    In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add butter or oil to the skillet and pour in the eggs. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft scrambled.

  4. Assemble the burrito:
    Warm the tortilla in a pan or microwave for a few seconds to make it pliable. Place the scrambled eggs in the center of the tortilla, then layer with your cooked meat, sautéed veggies, black beans, shredded cheese, and avocado slices (if using). Add salsa or hot sauce if you like.



  1. Wrap it up:
    Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from one end to the other, burrito-style.

  2. Optional: Toast the burrito:
    To get a crispy exterior, place the wrapped burrito seam-side down in the skillet and toast over medium heat for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.

  3. Serve and enjoy:
    Slice the burrito in half and serve with extra salsa, sour cream, or guacamole.

Variations:

  • Vegetarian Breakfast Burrito: Skip the meat and load up on veggies, beans, and avocado.
  • Spicy Breakfast Burrito: Add jalapeños, spicy sausage, or a dash of hot sauce for extra heat.
  • Loaded Breakfast Burrito: Add extras like hash browns, pico de gallo, or corn for a heartier version.

Enjoy your hearty and flavorful breakfast burrito!
