Instructions
- Cook the bacon: In a large skillet cook the bacon over medium heat, until crispy, about 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Cook the hash browns: In the same skillet using the bacon fat, cook the hash browns until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
- Cook the eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, with the milk, salt and pepper together. To the same skillet, melt the butter then add the egg mixture and scramble until the eggs are just cooked through. Use a rubber spatula to stir the eggs until soft curds form.
- Assemble burritos: In the center of each tortilla, layer with hash browns, scrambled eggs, Monterey jack cheese, mozzarella cheese, cooked bacon, some diced tomato and a bit of chopped parsley. Fold in the two sides and roll up tightly.
- Brown the burritos: Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the burritos in the skillet seam side down. Cook on all sides until the golden brown, about 3 min per side.
- Serve: Serve hot with hot sauce or salsa.
Notes
- You can use store bought tortillas or you can make them yourself, following my recipe for homemade Flour Tortillas. However, large flour tortillas are best since they're big enough to wrap burrito style.
- If you are looking to make a more healthier version of this, you can keep the bacon out or substitute it with shredded chicken for a different approach.
- While the recipe includes milk, there are other ways to help your scrambled eggs get the texture you're looking for. You can substitute the amount of regular milk with almond milk or water. Either one of these will help the eggs get creamier and blend well with the rest of your ingredients.
- If making these as meal prep, you can freeze them before toasting them and and just toast them when you're ready to serve them.
- If you're adding this recipe to your meal-prep of the week, you can store these breakfast burritos in an airtight container in your fridge for up to 4 days.
- If you're making them ahead of time and wish to store them in your freezer, you can wrap them tightly in a plastic wrap or store them in an airtight container in your freezer. They'll be great in there for up to 1 month.When reheating, you can add them in the oven for about 10 minutes or if you're really in a rush, throw them in the microwave for 2 minutes and you'll be good to go! They can be frozen before or after toasting them.
