Breakfast Burrito Recipe
Servings: 15 burritos
Ingredients
- 2 Large russet potatoes baked & cut into inch sized chunks
- 1 Green bell pepper deseeded & diced
- 1 medium white or yellow onion diced
- 2 ½ Dozen eggs
- 2 Lbs of bacon
- 15 to 20 Large flour tortillas
- Some of your favorite salsa or make one of our homemade salsas
- Mexican blend cheese
- Neutral flavored oil canola, or vegetable
Instructions
- Prep the potatoes, bacon, and veggies: Bake the potatoes a day ahead of time so that they are ready to go the morning that you want to make the burritos. Next cook up the bacon to your liking. Finely chop up the potatoes into chunks, and crush the bacon into pieces, and dice the onion and bell pepper.
- Fry up the potatoes onion, and bell pepper: Get out a large skillet, and add about 2 tablespoons of oil in it. Put the skillet over a high heat and add the potatoes, onion, and bell pepper, stirring and cooking them until they begin to brown up. This should take about 7 to 10 minutes. Once everything has browned up a little, take the skillet off the heat and set aside.
- Cook the eggs: Because we are making such a large batch of burrito filling, you will need to get out another large skillet and distribute half of the potato, onion and bell pepper mixture to it. **If you try to make this large of a batch in one skillet it will take forever to cook so trust me on this one**. Then in a separate bowl crack the eggs and lightly whisk them up. Put both skillets over medium heat and distribute half of the eggs to both. Quickly toss in a tablespoon or two of the salsa to both skillets. Mix this all together, and stir until the the eggs have been cooked through. At the end distribute the bacon between both skillets, mix it in, and take both skillets off the heat. Finally place the burrito fillings from both skillets into one large bowl, and set aside to be used in step 5.
- Heat up tortillas: While you can heat them up individually in a skillet, I recommend that simply microwave them for a minute. We just need them to be a little warm as it makes them more stretchy.
- Assemble the burritos: Finally assemble each burrito one at a time. To do this you will first need to get out one tortilla and place it on your counter. Next take a couple pinches of cheese and spread it around the center of the tortilla. Then take a measuring cup, and scoop out a cup of the filling, placing it in the middle of the tortillas. Follow this up with another couple pinches of cheese on top of the filling. Finally to roll the burrito by folding in the sides and rolling. Make sure that it is nice and snug.
