Hello, busy bees! Mornings can be a total chaos, especially for a busy working mom like me. There are days when I need to juggle getting myself ready, making sure my husband has his coffee, and ensuring my daughter is all set for school. Amidst this morning rush, breakfast often takes a backseat. But, I’ve learned a trick that’s a game-changer – my Breakfast Burrito Recipe! 🌯
While the bacon warmed up in the microwave, I beat the eggs and seasoned them with a pinch of salt and pepper. I heated a non-stick skillet and scrambled the eggs until fluffy. Cooking the eggs and bacon simultaneously to save time and ensure everything was ready together. 🥓
As the eggs and bacon cooked, I warmed the tortillas in the microwave for a few seconds. Then, I laid them out and started building the layers – a spoonful of scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, a sprinkle of cheese, and a handful of diced veggies. To enhance the flavor profile, I added a dash of hot sauce for a mild kick. 😋
Now came the fun part – wrapping it all up into a neat, burrito-like package. I folded in the sides of the tortilla and rolled it from the bottom, creating a snug and secure bundle. Making sure the filling is centered, allowing for easier folding and rolling.
To make our mornings even smoother, I decided to prepare a couple of extra burritos and wrap them in parchment paper. They can be stored in the fridge and reheated in the microwave for a speedy breakfast any day of the week.
And if you’re looking to elevate your Breakfast Burrito experience, I have the perfect pairing for you – my Sour Cream Dip Recipe! The creamy and tangy flavors of the dip complement the savory goodness of the burrito, adding an extra layer of deliciousness. Happy cooking and happy eating, busy bees! 🐝
Ingredients:
- 4 large eggs
- 4 slices of bacon
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers (assorted colors)
- 1/4 cup diced onions
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: salsa, sour cream, chopped fresh herbs
Instructions:
- In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well beaten. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to drain excess grease. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
- In the same skillet with the bacon grease, add the diced onions and bell peppers. Sauté them until they are soft and slightly caramelized.
- Push the sautéed vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour the beaten eggs onto the empty side. Let them cook for a moment, then gently scramble them until they are fully cooked and fluffy.
- Combine the scrambled eggs with the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Mix them together and season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Place a portion of the egg and vegetable mixture in the center of each tortilla.
- Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese over the egg mixture.
- To fold the burritos, start by folding the sides of the tortilla over the filling. Then, fold the bottom part of the tortilla up and roll it tightly to create a burrito.
- If desired, warm the assembled burritos on a skillet or in the microwave for a few seconds to melt the cheese and make the tortilla slightly crispy.
- Serve the Breakfast Burritos warm with your favorite toppings such as salsa, sour cream, or chopped fresh herbs.
