Chorizo & Black Bean Breakfast Burritos (OAMC) image

Besides cereal, this is pretty much the only breakfast food I eat as I am not a morning person and these are quick to heat up every morning. Each burrito makes a tasty, balanced meal when eaten with a piece of fruit. My neighborhood Mexican grocery store sells the best freshly-made pico de gallo, so that is what I use. You can make your own, but don't use salsa as it will make the burrito filling too mushy. I also make my own chorizo for these (Miss Annie's Recipe #25846 ).

Time 1h

Yield 20 burritos, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb chorizo sausage, removed from casing
1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
2 tablespoons butter
18 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon adobo seasoning (or salt & pepper to taste)
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can black beans, rinsed & drained
16 ounces pico de gallo, drained
2 cups chihuahua cheese or 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
20 (8 inch) flour tortillas (I use whole wheat)

Steps:

  • In a deep pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add sausage and bell pepper; cook for about 8-10 minutes, crumbling the sausage every now and then. When sausage is cooked through, remove from pan and drain of fat.
  • Wipe the grease from the pan, then melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the beaten eggs and Adobo Seasoning (or salt & pepper), and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring often, until the eggs are scrambled and cooked through. Remove from heat.
  • Add the drained black beans and pico de gallo to the pot. Stir to combine well.
  • Now, prepare your burritos. Warm tortillas in microwave for 30 seconds until warm and flexible. Place 3/4 cup scrambled egg mixture into lower center of tortilla. Top with about 1 1/2 tablespoons of cheese. Roll up tortilla into a burrito. Repeat with each tortilla, until done.
  • Wrap each burrito in plastic wrap, and store all of them in a large container or zip-lock bag in the freezer.
  • When ready to eat, remove frozen burritos from wrapping and then wrap in a paper towel. Heat in microwave for about 2 1/2 minutes.
