Homemade Frozen Breakfast Burritos
From: Lynn @ www.lynnskitchenadventures.com/
Store bought burritos can cost up to $1.50 each depending on what kind and I can't control the ingredients. My son loves these...and the more cheese the better. I love these because I can control the ingredients.
Some people add salsa to theirs, but we find that it gets soggy with salsa. My husband and son prefer to just eat it with the salsa after it is heated. We kept ours simple with just eggs, sausage, and cheese on flour tortillas. You can also add hash brown type potatoes too if you like them in your burritos. Onions and peppers added to the meat would also be good.
I love how easy this is making breakfast for my son. All he has to do is take one or two out of the freezer, put them in the microwave, and he has an easy and filling breakfast.
If you love breakfast burritos and have never given homemade frozen ones a try, you need to. It will make breakfast quick and easy on busy mornings.
Makes 10-12 burritos
Ingredients:
10-12 burrito sized flour tortillas
12 eggs
1 pound ground breakfast sausage
shredded cheese
Instructions:
Cook meat until browned and crumbled.
Drain off any fat from the meat.
You can reserve the fat for cooking the eggs.
Crack eggs into a bowl and whisk to mix well.
Heat oil in skillet or use reserved fat from meat.
Pour eggs into skillet and cook over medium heat scrambling them as you cook them until done.
Let meat and eggs cool completely.
Once eggs and meat are cooled place about 1/2 cup of filling on each tortilla.
Place desired amount of cheese on top.
Roll tortilla over the top of the filling.
Fold in sides and continue folding to make a burrito.
Place each burrito onto a piece of waxed paper or parchment paper.
Roll burrito in waxed paper and place in a zip top type freezer bag.
Freeze.
Remove a burrito from the freezer and microwave for 2-3 minutes.
Time will vary depending on the microwave.
Serve with salsa if desired.
Note: I like to wrap them waxed paper to keep them individually wrapped and give them extra protection from freezer burn. My husband says that it works just microwaving in the waxed paper. My son disagrees and says the texture is better when heated not wrapped in waxed paper, so he takes it off. You can experiment with it and do what you like best.
