Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Cook Time 30 minutes mins
Reheat from frozen 40 minutes mins
Potatoes 2 lbs red potatoes 2 tsp garlic powder salt and pepper Eggs 8 large eggs 1/2 cup whole milk 1 tbsp unsalted butter salt and pepper
Sausage In a large skillet, add olive oil and heat over medium high
Add sausage and cook until browned and done, about 5 minutes. Make sure to crumble the sausage as it cooks
Reserve 1 tablespoon of the fat and drain the rest
Transfer cooked sausage to plate. Do not wash the skillet (we will reuse)
Set the cooked sausage aside
Potatoes Scrub potatoes clean and add to a large pot
Fill pot with water to just cover the potatoes. Add a generous pinch of salt
Bring to a boil and cook potatoes until right before it's cooked, about 8-10 minutes depending on the size of potatoes
Drain and cut potatoes into slices
Season with garlic powder, salt and pepper
In the large skillet you cooked the sausage, add the reserved sausage fat and heat pan to medium
Add sliced potatoes and cook until slightly crispy and soft in the center
Transfer potatoes to plate. Do not wash the skillet (we will reuse)
Eggs Crack eggs into a bowl and season with salt, pepper and milk. Whisk until well blended
Take your skillet you have been using and add butter melting over medium heat
Add eggs to the skillet and cook until thickened and no visible liquid egg remains, approximately 3-5 minutes. Set aside
Assembly Add potatoes, sausage, egg, cheese and tomatoes evenly across 8 flour tortillas
Fold this up burrito style: Fold in opposite sides of each tortilla then roll up
Place seam side down on a cutting board or plate (whatever you are working off of)
Wrap each burrito in foil tightly and place the burritos in a large freezer zip top bag to store in freezer for up to 1 month
Condiments: I like my breakfast burritos with Pepper Plant Garlic Hot Pepper Sauce and a bit of sour cream or with a good salsa
If you want to eat a burrito right away, you can wrap in foil and place in a 400 degree preheated oven for 12-15 minutes. If making multiple, you can place on a baking sheet seam side down and cover the baking sheet in foil and cook at the same temp and time
If you want to use bacon instead of sausage, that works too! Just be sure to cook your bacon with your preferred method
