Description

Breakfast burritos for the freezer are simple to make, requiring just basic pantry ingredients. Easy to make, simple to customize and perfect for busy mornings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb. ground breakfast sausage 
  • 12 eggs
  • non stick spray
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • (8) thin slices of white cheddar cheese
  • (8 ) 10 inch flour tortillas 


Instructions

Cook Breakfast Sausage:

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add breakfast sausage. Cook until meat is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Stir frequently. Remove from heat and set aside.

Scrambled Eggs:

  1. Beat eggs, salt and pepper in a medium bowl until blended.
  2. Lightly coat a large nonstick skillet with olive oil spray. Pour in egg mixture. As eggs begin to set, gently pull the eggs across the pan with a spatula forming curds.
  3. Continue cooking - pulling, lifting and folding eggs - until thickened and no visible liquid egg remains. Don't stir constantly. Remove from heat. Set aside.

Assembly:

  1. Place 1 slice of cheese in the center of each tortilla. Add about 1/8 of the eggs and 1/8 of the sausage to the tortilla. Fold the sides into the  center of the tortilla and then roll into a burrito. 
  2. Carefully wrap the assembled burrito in aluminum foil. Store wrapped burritos in an airtight bag or container in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Notes

How To Heat and Serve (Oven): Heat  oven to 400 degrees. Place frozen, aluminum foil wrapped burritos onto a baking sheet and cook for 35-50 minutes or until the burrito filling is warm and the cheese is melted. 

How To Heat and Serve (Microwave): Remove the foil from the burrito. Wrap burrito in a damp paper towel  and microwave for about 2 minutes or until filling is warmed through. Cooking time will vary depending on the size of your burrito and your specific microwave.
