Breakfast Burritos instructions
- Scramble your eggs and set aside to cool.
- Cook and crumble your bacon or sausage and set aside.
- Add your meat to your eggs and mix well. I used bacon..

- Lay out a foil square, one tortilla, and a slice of American cheese in the middle of your tortilla.
- Scoop 1/3 C of egg mixture into your tortilla..
- Fold your burrito up and set on a baking sheet while you continue the process with the remaining product..
- Once all of your burritos are rolled, stick in the oven at 500 (preheated). This is a double batch..
- Bake 15 minutes or until center is 165 for a softer outer tortilla and 25 minuets if you prefer a crisper outer shell like I do..
But the great thing about this recipe is, it's basic. And you can use the basic method to create whatever degree of amped-up breakfast burrito you're in the mood for. The inspiration for these breakfast burritos comes from Lake Anne Market, a hidden-gem bodega in my hometown of Reston, VA. From the outside, this place looks like a run-of-the-mill convenience store but in the back, there's an open kitchen with two lovely ladies churning out authentic Latin American and Tex-Mex specialties. Even better, this recipe yields eight burritos, so you can feed the whole family, or if you're a small household, store enough for a week's worth of.
