breakfast • prep: 10 min • cook: 15 min • serves 4
Ingredients
- 8 large eggs
- 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
- 1 cup frozen diced hash browns
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 slices bacon, chopped (or 4 sausage links, sliced)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ¼ cup salsa
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Hot sauce (optional)
- Sour cream (optional)
Instructions
-
Cook the meat and potatoes: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook chopped bacon until crispy, about 5 minutes. Add hash browns and cook for 4-5 minutes until golden. Remove from skillet.
-
Scramble the eggs: Reduce heat to medium-low. Add butter to the skillet. Beat eggs with salt and pepper, pour into the pan. Stir gently with a spatula until just set — keep them soft.
-
Warm tortillas: Microwave tortillas for 15 seconds or warm in a dry skillet.
-
Build burritos: Layer eggs, bacon, hash browns, cheese, and salsa down the center of each tortilla. Fold bottom up, then sides in, and roll tightly.
Notes
- Storage: Wrap individually in foil and freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave for 2 minutes or in a 375°F oven for 15 minutes.
- Variations: Add black beans, avocado, or sautéed peppers and onions. Use chorizo for a spicier version.
- Tips: Warm the tortillas before rolling — cold tortillas crack. Keep the eggs slightly underdone since they’ll continue cooking in the wrap.
- Make Ahead: Perfect meal prep breakfast. Make a batch on Sunday for the whole week.
