BACON, BEAN, EGGS, TACO TOTS BURRITOS

Bacon, Bean, Eggs, Taco Tots Burritos image

The breakfast burrito is basically the best breakfast foods all wrapped in one tortilla. Eggs are layered with refried beans, pico and cheese. Then, instead of hashbrowns, tots with taco spice. Why should breakfast be limited to one meal a day when it's this good?
