A few hours of work on the weekend can provide you easy homemade breakfast burritos over the next month, all at the press of a button!
(regular burritos will be linked here once I have that post up)
(would NOT recommend using GF tortillas for this recipe if you plan on freezing them for later, the tortillas come out gummy)
Ingredients
- Ground Meat Filling
- 2 lbs ground meat (breakfast sausage, chorizo, turkey, beef, pork, take your pick!)
- 3 Tbs oil (canola, olive, etc.)
- 2 Tbs onion powder
- 3 Tbs minced garlic
- 1.5 Tbs ground cumin
- 1 Tbs chili powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 small can tomato paste (6 oz can, so 3 oz)
- Sauteed Peppers and Onions
- 1 pack of pre-chopped peppers and onions from your local grocery (approximately 12 oz)
- 1/4 cup minced garlic
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter
- 1 Tbs ground cumin
- 1/4 cup hot sauce
- Home fries
- 1/2 bag from the freezer section, cooked per instructions on the bag (32 oz bag, so 16 oz)
- Scrambled Eggs
- 12 eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Beans
- 2 (15 oz) cans ranch beans
- Burritos
- 1 large bag Mexican cheese blend
- Hot sauce
- Large tortillas
Instructions
- Saute meat in oil over medium heat until browned. Add in tomato paste and seasonings, saute until well mixed. Set aside.
- Saute peppers, onion, and garlic over medium heat until caramelizing, add cumin and hot sauce, stir to combine, set aside.
- Cook home fries per instructions on bag.
- Whisk eggs and cream together, cook in nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until fluffy.
- Cook the beans in a small pot on the stove at medium heat until just simmering.
- To assemble the burritos, follow the steps below. I have also included this picture to give an idea of where to place your filling and how much per burrito.

- Put tortilla on a piece of plastic wrap to easily roll the burrito.
- On the far side of the tortilla, put a small amount of potatoes, spread out.
- Top potatoes with eggs, then ground meat blend.
- Top meat with pepper/onion mixture, then beans.
- Top beans with drizzle of hot sauce, then Mexican cheese blend.
- Fold sides of burritos, then roll it up.
- Wrap burrito in plastic wrap, store all burritos in a large Ziploc bag to freeze.
- To reheat the burritos, wrap burrito in paper towel, microwave for 2 minutes, flip the burrito over, microwave another 2 minutes, then let sit for 1 minute before eating.
Yield: Approximately 16 burritos
