SOUTHWEST BREAKFAST BURRITOS



Southwest Breakfast Burritos image

My wife and I love eating Mexican so I came up with this recipe so that we could have a little more variety in our morning meals. We are busy people and don't have time to make elaborate meals in the morning. In the past we have bought frozen breakfast burritos, but they are not very tasty and I knew they could be improved upon. This recipe will make a large batch of the burrito fixins that you can freeze, or store in the refrigerator so that you can make great breakfast burritos whenever you please.

Time 1h5m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 eggs
⅔ cup milk
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 pound bulk pork sausage
2 tablespoons minced garlic
½ red onion, diced
1 tomato, diced
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 (3.5 ounce) can diced jalapenos
1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
20 (6 inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt in a large bowl. Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the egg mixture; cook and stir until eggs are completely set, about 5 minutes. Chop the cooked eggs and place in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and stir in the sausage and garlic. Cook and stir for 5 minutes, then add the onion. Continue cooking and stirring until the sausage is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease. Combine the sausage with the eggs, tomato, cilantro, jalapeno, and taco seasoning. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature, then stir in the Cheddar cheese.
  • Place a tortilla onto your work surface, then spoon some of the filling halfway between the bottom edge and the center of the tortilla. Flatten the filling into rectangle shape with the back of a spoon. Fold the bottom of the tortilla snugly over the filling, then fold in the left and right edges. Roll the burrito up to the top edge, forming a tight cylinder. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • Tightly wrap individual burritos with plastic wrap and freeze until ready to serve. Heat in the microwave until hot, 3 to 4 minutes, before serving.

BREAKFAST BURRITO



Breakfast Burrito image

A burrito is a delicious, portable answer to breakfast. All of the elements are snugly wrapped in a tortilla, keeping everything warmer longer when you're taking it to go. Let your littlest chefs help crack and beat the eggs or shred the cheese. When everything is cooked, enlist their help again to assemble and roll up the burritos.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 plum tomatoes, diced
1/2 jalapeno, diced, seeded if desired
1/2 small red onion, diced
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped, reserving some for garnish
Juice of 1/2 lime
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
8 ounces fresh Mexican-style chorizo, casings removed
1 cup frozen hash browns with peppers and onions, such as Potatoes O'Brien
8 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Hot sauce
4 large burrito-size tortillas
1 avocado, sliced
1/2 cup finely shredded Cheddar or Mexican blend cheese

Steps:

  • For the pico de gallo: Combine the tomatoes, jalapeno, onions, cilantro and lime juice in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • For the burritos: Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking it up, until it is slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon. Add the hash browns to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Beat the eggs in a medium bowl until frothy. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and a couple dashes of hot sauce. Pour the eggs over the hash and cook, stirring, until the eggs are fluffy and just set, about 3 minutes. Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Wipe out the skillet and return it to the heat.
  • Warm the tortillas one at a time in the skillet.
  • Build the burrito by layering the avocado, egg mixture, about a tablespoon of pico de gallo and a sprinkle of cheese. Fold in the two sides and roll up tightly. Garnish with the reserved cilantro leaves and serve with additional pico de gallo and hot sauce on the side.

Easy and delicious breakfast fare. These freeze well so make a bunch for later. I cook by look, I don't measure but these amounts should be pretty close.
