Breakfast Burrito

FreshEasyPrep 15 minCook 15 minServes 4
Breakfast Burrito

Fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy potatoes, sausage and melted cheese wrapped tight — the grab-and-go breakfast that actually satisfies.

Ingredients

  • 8 eggs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • ½ breakfast sausage (8 oz), casings removed
  • 2 medium potatoes, diced small
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ½ cup salsa

Steps

  1. Cook the diced potatoes in the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, 8-10 minutes, until crisp and golden. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  2. Brown the sausage in the same skillet, breaking it up, 5 minutes. Drain excess fat.
  3. Whisk the eggs with milk, salt and pepper. Pour into the skillet over medium-low heat and scramble gently until just set, about 3 minutes.
  4. Warm the tortillas so they fold without cracking.
  5. Layer eggs, sausage, potatoes, cheese and salsa down the center of each tortilla, fold in the sides and roll up tightly.
  6. Toast each burrito seam-side down in a dry skillet for 1-2 minutes to seal.
Serve with: salsa and hot sauce on the side.

Keep the eggs slightly underdone before wrapping: they finish cooking from residual heat and stay creamy instead of rubbery.
