Freezer Breakfast Burritos: The Incredible Ultimate Recipe You Must Try


  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: 2 minute

Ingredients

– 8 large eggs
– 1 cup milk
– 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your choice)
– 1 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
– 1 cup diced onions
– 1 cup cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage, bacon, or diced ham (optional)
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
– 1 teaspoon paprika (optional)
– 8 large flour tortillas
– Non-stick cooking spray or oil for frying
– Salsa or hot sauce for serving (optional)


Instructions

Making freezer breakfast burritos is simple with these easy-to-follow steps:

1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather all ingredients. If using fresh vegetables and meat, chop them into small pieces.
2. Cook the Vegetables: In a skillet over medium heat, add a bit of oil and sauté the diced onions and bell peppers until softened (about 5 minutes).
3. Add the Eggs: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Pour this mixture into the skillet with the cooked vegetables.
4. Scramble the Eggs: Stir gently, cooking until the eggs are just set but still slightly creamy. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
5. Prepare the Tortillas: Warm the flour tortillas in another skillet for about 30 seconds on each side to make them more pliable.
6. Fill the Burritos: Lay a tortilla flat and scoop a portion (about 1/3 cup) of the egg mixture onto the center. Add any optional meat and sprinkle with cheese.
7. Roll the Burritos: Fold in the sides and roll from the bottom up, ensuring the filling is secured inside. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
8. Freeze the Burritos: Place each wrapped burrito on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for 10-15 minutes until firm.
9. Store: Once frozen, wrap each burrito in foil or place them in freezer bags labeled with the date. Return them to the freezer for extended storage.
10. Reheat: When ready to eat, unwrap a frozen burrito and microwave for 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Alternatively, you can bake them at 350°F (175°C) for about 25-30 minutes until warm.
