Instructions
Creating a breakfast burrito is simple with these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients and chop the bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes.
2. Cook the Vegetables: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the onions and bell peppers until they are soft. This should take about 3–5 minutes.
3. Add the Meat: If you’re using cooked breakfast sausage or bacon, add it to the skillet and heat for another 2 minutes.
4. Whisk the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper.
5. Cook the Eggs: Pour the eggs into the skillet, stirring frequently until they are scrambled and fully cooked. This should take about 3–5 minutes.
6. Assemble the Burritos: Lay a tortilla flat and spoon some of the egg mixture into the center. Top with shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, and avocado.
7. Roll the Burrito: Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top.
8. Heat the Burritos: If desired, place the rolled burritos seam-side down in the skillet for 2–3 minutes on each side to crisp them up.
9. Serve: Cut the burrito in half and serve with salsa or hot sauce. Garnish with cilantro if desired.
10. Enjoy: Take a moment to relish every delicious bite of your breakfast burrito!
