Description

A hearty and satisfying breakfast burrito filled with scrambled eggs, savory sausage, and colorful vegetables, perfect for starting your day right.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage
  • 1 cup diced cooked potatoes
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or pepper jack)
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Salsa or hot sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Sautéing the vegetables: In a large skillet, sauté the onions and bell peppers over medium heat until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Adding sausage and potatoes: Add the cooked sausage and diced potatoes to the skillet. Stir and heat through for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  3. Scrambling the eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet and scramble until they are fully cooked and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Assembling the burrito: Lay out the tortillas and distribute the egg mixture evenly among them. Top with shredded cheese. Roll up the burritos, folding in the sides as you roll to secure the filling.
  5. Serving: Serve the burritos warm with salsa or hot sauce on the side if desired.

Notes

Customize the burrito by adding your choice of ingredients such as spicy peppers or extra cheese.
