Description

This Breakfast Burrito is packed with golden potatoes, sausage, fluffy eggs, and melty cheese, all wrapped in a warm tortilla. Ideal for quick meals or a hearty breakfast, these burritos are great to make ahead or enjoy fresh!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups cubed golden potatoes, ½ inch cubes
  • ½ medium white onion, diced
  • 1.5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • ¾ teaspoon chili powder
  • 10 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk, any kind
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar jack cheese
  • 1 lb. ground breakfast sausage
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1.5 cups shredded cheddar jack cheese
  • 810 large tortillas

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet or cast-iron skillet over medium/high heat. Add the potatoes and onion. Coat with olive oil and season with Italian seasoning, sea salt, and chili powder. Brown the potatoes for 3-4 minutes. Turn heat to medium/low and cover, cooking until fork-tender, about 10-15 minutes.
  2. Cook the sausage in a separate skillet over medium/high heat. Break it up, add maple syrup, and cook until fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Add salt and whisk again.
  4. Use the skillet from the sausage over medium/high heat. Add olive oil and once fragrant, pour in the egg mixture.
  5. Allow the eggs to partially set at the edges, then fold them toward the center as they cook for 2-3 minutes. Add cheese and continue to fold until fully cooked. Remove from heat.
  6. Lay out the tortillas on a flat surface. Evenly distribute potatoes, eggs, sausage, and cheese in the middle of each tortilla. Tightly roll each burrito.
  7. Store in the refrigerator for 2-3 days or wrap in tin foil and freeze for up to 3 months.

Notes

Feel free to customize the fillings with your favorite veggies or extra spices.
For a lighter version, use egg whites instead of whole eggs.
These burritos are perfect for meal prep and make a quick breakfast on the go.
