How to Make Breakfast Burritos
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook onions and bell peppers until softened.
Add your cooked meat and warm it through. Set aside.
In a bowl, whisk eggs with milk, salt, and pepper.
Scramble eggs in a pan until soft and fluffy.
Warm tortillas slightly so they are easy to fold.

Add eggs, potatoes, meat, and cheese to each tortilla.
Top with salsa, avocado, or any extras you like.
Fold in the sides and roll tightly into burritos.

Place burritos seam-side down in a pan and toast for 1–2 minutes per side until golden and slightly crispy.
How to Serve

Tips for Best Results
Don’t overfill the burritos to prevent tearing. Warm tortillas before rolling. Cook eggs gently to keep them soft. Wrap tightly for meal prep.
Variations
Make it vegetarian by skipping meat. Use low-carb tortillas. Add black beans for extra fiber. Swap potatoes for sweet potatoes.
Storage and Meal Prep
Wrap burritos in foil and store in the fridge for up to 4 days. Freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat in microwave or pan before serving.
