Ingredients You Will Need

– 2 tablespoons milk

– 2 tablespoons chopped bell pepper (optional)
How to Make a Breakfast Burrito
1. Cook the Sausage
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add in the breakfast sausage, cooking for a few minutes until browned and cooked through, breaking it apart as you cook. Remove from the pan and set aside.
2. Prepare the Scrambled Eggs
In the same fried pan melt the butter and then add the eggs. Whisk the eggs with the milk, salt, and black pepper and then pour into the melted butter. Slowly stir the eggs until cooked and soft.
3. Fill the Tortillas
Warm up the tortillas in a dry pan on the stovetop for a few seconds. Top each of the tortillas with scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, if using, and cheese. Top with bell peppers if using.
4. Roll and Toast
Tuck the edges of each tortilla, then roll them up tightly. Keep seam-side down in a warm skillet. Cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side until tortillas are golden brown and cheese is melted.
Tips for a Delicious Breakfast Burrito
Add fresh cooked eggs for the best texture. Do not overstuff the tortillas as you will struggle to roll them. Add in avocado salsa cooked potatoes for an extra layer of flavor.
Can You Make Breakfast Burritos Ahead?
Yes! Make the fillings beforehand and keep them chilled in the fridge. You can also individually wrap assembled burritos and freeze them. Reheat when ready to serve.
