Breakfast Burrito (Freezer Friendly)
Description
The filling features meat from cooked sausages combined with softened red onion and bell pepper sautéed until tender. Fluffy scrambled eggs mixed in add a mild, creamy texture. Refried beans provide a dense base layer, topped with fresh salsa, sliced avocado, and mature cheddar for a layered flavor profile ranging from savory and spicy to creamy and cheesy.
Assembling the fillings slightly off-center in large tortillas makes wrapping easier. Frying the rolled burritos briefly gives the tortillas a crisp, browned finish that contrasts with the soft interior. The burritos can be served immediately or stored frozen for later use.
This recipe notes the importance of using sufficiently large tortillas to contain the fillings without tearing. The eggs should be cooked gently to avoid dryness. Keeping tortillas sealed in the package until assembly helps maintain their pliability.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 400 g sausages (meat removed from casing)
- 4 tortilla wraps
- 1 red onion finely chopped
- 1 bell pepper finely chopped
- 4 egg whisked
- 1 avocado sliced
- 200 g refried beans
- 100 g salsa
- 60 g cheddar cheese grated, mature
Instructions
- Remove meat from 400 g Sausages and fry until cooked. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon Olive oil in a pan and fry 1 Bell peppers and 1 Red onion until softened.
- Add 4 Eggs and stir continuously until the egg is cooked.
- Lay out 4 Tortilla wraps. Assemble your burrito by dividing 200 g Refried beans between them then the cooked sausage. Place your filling slightly off centre to make rolling easier.
- Add the vegetable scramble, 100 g Salsa and slices of 1 Avocado.
- Top with 60 g Mature cheddar.
- Roll into a burrito (see the video for how to roll a burrito) and fry lightly until the tortilla is browned.
Notes
- Use tortillas at least 12 inches in size to easily wrap the filling; smaller tortillas can be used to make breakfast tacos.
- Keep tortilla wraps sealed in their package until right before assembling to maintain softness and ease of rolling.
- Fold burritos by tucking sides before rolling to secure the filling effectively.
- Use gluten-free tortillas and sausages to make the recipe gluten-free.
- Cook eggs gently to prevent dryness and maintain creamy texture in the filling.
