Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 12 eggs
  • ¼ cup water
  • pepper or Tabasco sauce
  • 1 lb. lean turkey breakfast sausage
  • 1 onion diced
  • 1 bell pepper any color, seeded and diced
  • 12 100% whole wheat tortillas, 8-inch I used Tia Rosa soft taco tortillas
  • 6-8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. While the butter is melting, whisk together the eggs, water, salt, and pepper or Tabasco sauce. When the butter is melted, tilt the skillet to coat the pan. Add the eggs and allow them to cook until bubbly, then gently scrape the bottom of the pan, allowing more of the liquid-y egg mixture to come in contact with the pan. Repeat until the eggs are completely scrambled. Transfer the eggs to a bowl and return the pan to the hot stove.
  • Add the sausage and cook, crumbling the sausage as it cooks, until it’s about halfway cooked. Add the onions and peppers and cook until the vegetables are tender and the sausage is completely cooked. Remove the pan from heat.
  • Place ⅓ cup scrambled eggs, ¼ cup of the sausage/pepper mixture, and 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese into each tortilla. Roll the mixture tightly into the tortillas, folding in the ends as you roll, then roll tightly in aluminum foil. Place the wrapped burritos into a large Ziploc bag and freeze.
  • When ready to serve, remove a burrito from the bag, unwrap it from the foil, and place it on a microwave-safe plate. Place the plate in the microwave and cook at 30% power for 90 seconds to defrost the burrito. Then cook for another 60 seconds on full power or until hot. Serve immediately with salsa. Makes 12 burritos.

Notes

  • You can freeze these burritos for up to 2-3 month.
  • If you'd like, you can store finished burritos in the fridge. Just enjoy them within 3-4 days for best results.
