THE BEST BREAKFAST BURRITOS (OAMC OPTION)
I absolutely love the sausage breakfast burritos that McDonald's sells. This recipe is by no means a copycat, but it was definitely an inspiration for this recipe. I have tweaked it for over a year, and this is the final product. This is a terrific recipe if you're on the go, and it's really easy to throw together. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does!

Steps:
- 1. Crack all 12 eggs into a bowl. Poke each yolk with a fork, add 1/2 teaspoons of the pepper and 1 1/2 tsp.of the salt and beat the eggs thoroughly. Set aside.
- 2. Add oil to a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the potatoes according to package directions, turning every 5 minutes or so until potatoes start to brown. Add the remaining salt and pepper after 10-14 minutes, about halfway through cooking time.
- 3. While the potatoes are cooking, remove the chorizo from the casings and thoroughly cook the meat in a large fry pan over medium heat, breaking up the meat as it cooks. If there is a large amount of grease, blot away some, but not all away, with a paper towel.
- 3. Lower the heat to medium, give the eggs a quick scramble and then add them to the chorizo. Continue cooking the eggs and chorizo until the mixture is on the dry side. Use the spatula to break up the eggs and chorizo into "crumbles.".
- 4. Add the chorizo and egg mixture to the potatoes and gently fold it into the potatoes.
- 5. Now set up your burrito station. Place a griddle over medium heat. Place a plate near the griddle. Place your shredded cheese in a bowl near the burrito filling. Uncap your hot sauce.
- 6. Heat a tortillas for about 10 seconds on each side. Put it on the plate. Use a ladle and scoop out a level amount of the mixture into the lower center of the tortilla. Sprinkle a handful of cheese over the filling and shake some hot sauce on top. Fold in the right and left sides of the burrito and then bring the bottom flap over the mixture and roll it up.
- 7. Eat it and enjoy! Or nuke it for 20-30 secs. if it isn't hot enough for you.
- 8. For OAMC option, grab a piece of plastic wrap and wrap the burrito, making sure that the seam is down. Freeze the individual burritos for up to two months.
- 7. To reheat, remove the plastic wrap, place the burrito on a microwave-safe plate seam side down, and microwave it for about 2 1/2 minutes on high. (I have a 1000 watt microwave and this amount of time seems to work well for me. Make adjustments for your microwave.
- 8. Allow burrito to cool for 2 minutes before handling and ENJOY!
Tips:
- Choose the right beans: Pinto beans, black beans, and refried beans are popular choices for burritos. Each type of bean has its own unique flavor and texture, so choose the one that you prefer.
- Cook the beans properly: If you're using dried beans, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking. This will help to soften the beans and reduce the cooking time.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your burritos will taste. Look for fresh vegetables, ripe avocados, and flavorful cheeses.
- Don't overstuff the burritos: It's important to strike a balance between having enough filling and still being able to roll the burritos up tightly. If you overstuff the burritos, they will be difficult to roll and may fall apart.
- Use the right tortillas: Burrito tortillas come in a variety of sizes and thicknesses. Choose a tortilla that is large enough to hold all of your fillings, but not so thick that it's difficult to fold.
- Warm the tortillas before assembling the burritos: This will make them more pliable and easier to roll. You can warm the tortillas in the microwave, on a hot skillet, or in the oven.
- Add some heat: If you like spicy food, add some chopped jalapeños, chili powder, or cayenne pepper to your burritos.
