There is nothing quite like starting your day with a warm breakfast burrito. I love these because they are filling, comforting, and come together easily even when you are still waking up.

My biggest tip for success is to cook your potatoes until they are nice and golden brown before adding the eggs to the pan. This gives the burritos a wonderful texture that makes them taste just like they came from your favorite local cafe.

Ingredients

  • 8 large flour tortillas
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups diced potatoes
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Salsa or hot sauce for serving

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and add the diced potatoes.

  2. 2

    Cook the potatoes for about 10 minutes until they are soft inside and crispy on the outside.

  3. 3

    Add the bell pepper and onion to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes until tender.

  4. 4

    Whisk the eggs in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper then pour them into the skillet with the vegetables.

  5. 5

    Scramble everything together until the eggs are cooked through but still moist.

  6. 6

    Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.

  7. 7

    Spoon the egg mixture into the center of each tortilla, fold in the sides, and roll them up tightly.

  8. 8

    Serve warm with a side of salsa or hot sauce.

💡 Tips

You can wrap these burritos in foil and store them in the freezer for up to one month. To reheat, just pop a frozen burrito in the microwave for two minutes or until it is heated through.
