Copycat McDonalds Breakfast Burrito
Description
This recipe starts with frying mild pork sausage crumbled finely for even cooking with diced onions, green chilies, and tomatoes warmed into the mixture. Beaten eggs are added and cooked gently until set, blending with the sausage and vegetables.
Assembly involves placing the warm egg and meat filling on tortillas, layering American cheese torn into pieces, then rolling tightly. The cheese melts into the hot filling, adding a creamy texture contrast. These burritos can be served immediately or wrapped and stored in refrigerator or freezer for reheating.
Serving these with salsa, sour cream, or avocado adds complementary flavors and moisture. They mimic the milder breakfast burrito flavor typical of the chain, making an accessible homemade version for easy weekday mornings.
Ingredients
- 1 pound pork sausage mild
- 1/2 cup yellow onion diced
- 1/4 cup tomato diced, fresh
- 1 tablespoon green chilies diced, canned
- 10 tortillas 6 inch torillas
- 9 egg
- 6 ounces American cheese 12 slices
- 1/2 cup salsa
Instructions
- Crumble and fry pork sausage, stir and separate meat so it will fry in small little pieces. Remove from heat drain excess grease.
- Place drained sausage in frying pan add onion, green chilies, and tomatoes, heat on medium temperature just until sausage and vegetables are heated through, stir frequently.
- Measure 2 cups of eggs and beat. Add the eggs to the pan with the sausage mixture. When cooked remove from heat.
To assemble
- Place two tablespoons of the sausage and egg mixture onto 1 tortilla, tear each slice of American cheese into two even portions, then place the cheese on top of the sausage mixture, and roll the tortilla.
- If you make these all ahead of time, you can wrap in plastic to store them in the refrigerator or freezer, and then heat them up in the microwave for a moment or two.
- Serve with your favorite taco or Picante sauce. You will find these are milder and really great for breakfast. I also like to serve sour cream and avocado with mine.
