Breakfast Burrito Recipe
This breakfast burrito layers warm flour tortillas with scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, hash brown patties, and salsa. The burritos are folded and toasted briefly in the oven to melt the cheese and toast the tortillas, resulting in a hearty combination of creamy eggs, crunchy bacon, and crispy potatoes wrapped in a soft tortilla. Ideal for a filling breakfast or brunch.

Notes
- Freeze un-toasted burritos wrapped tightly in parchment and foil for up to 3 months.
- Reheat frozen burritos in the oven at 375°F for 15 minutes, then turn and bake 8-10 more minutes until heated through and cheese melts.
- Toast burritos after rolling to create a crisp exterior and seal the filling inside.
- Avoid adding too many wet ingredients to prevent soggy burritos.
- Do not overstuff burritos to avoid filling bursting during rolling or baking.
