Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb bulk breakfast pork sausage
12 eggs
1 can (4.5 oz) Old El Paso™ chopped green chiles, drained
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (8 oz)
Salt and pepper to taste
8 (12-inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

  • In 12-inch skillet, cook sausage, stirring frequently, until no longer pink.
  • Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat eggs with whisk until well blended.
  • When sausage is thoroughly cooked, pour eggs into skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, as eggs set up. When eggs have started to set up but are still runny, add green chiles. Continue to cook until eggs are set. Add cheese; stir to distribute evenly. Remove from heat.
  • Wrap tortillas in clean kitchen towel. Microwave on High 30 to 45 seconds to soften. Place 1 tortilla on top of large sheet of foil. Spoon one-eighth of egg mixture onto center of tortilla. Fold in ends; roll into burrito shape. Wrap burrito tightly in foil. Repeat with remaining tortillas and egg mixture.
  • Place foil-wrapped burritos in large resealable food-storage plastic bag. Store in refrigerator or insulated cooler with ice until ready to cook.
  • When ready to cook, place wrapped burritos in hot coals next to fire. Cook until burritos are thoroughly heated, 10 to 15 minutes depending on how hot the fire is.

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 hearty burritos

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 ounces Yukon gold potatoes, thinly sliced (about 3 medium)
1 poblano pepper, stemmed, seeded and thinly sliced
2 tablespoon vegetable oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound fresh chorizo sausage, casings removed (about 4 links)
8 large eggs
Four 10-inch flour tortillas
Shredded Cheddar, hot sauce, salsa, sliced scallions and sour cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with nonstick foil.
  • Put the potatoes and pepper out on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the oil over the vegetables and toss along with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Spread the vegetables out in to a single layer on three-quarters of the baking sheet. Crumble the sausage on the remaining quarter of the baking sheet. Roast until the potatoes are fork tender and the sausage is cooked all the way through, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely. Pack into a large plastic re-sealable bag and refrigerate up to overnight. Pack in a cooler. (Make sure to pack all of the other ingredients and equipment too.)
  • Build a medium campfire (if there is a grate for cooking then go ahead and use it).
  • Make the foil packs: Cut eight 15-inch pieces of nonstick foil. Stack 2 pieces of foil, place your hand in the center and fold the sides up to create a shallow bowl. Repeat with the remaining pieces of foil so you have 4 bowls total. Put a quarter of the potato-sausage mixture in the center of each bowl. Crack the eggs into a quart-sized glass mason jar and shake well to scramble.
  • Divide the eggs evenly among the bowls. Fold the sides over the fillings to create a seal. Place the foil packs directly onto the coals of the fire, or on the grate above the fire, and cook, rotating with tongs every few minutes until the eggs are set, about 10 minutes. This could take more or less time depending on the strength of the fire, careful of steam you can open the packs to check while they cook. Remove from heat and let cool for 2 minutes so you can handle the foil.
  • Open each packs and flip the mixture out onto the middle of your tortillas and top with Cheddar, hot sauce, salsa, scallions and sour cream.

Tips:

  • Prep Ahead: For a hassle-free morning, prepare ingredients in advance. Chop veggies, cook sausage, and pack them in separate containers. Assemble the burritos the night before and refrigerate overnight.
  • Organize Burritos: To prevent a breakfast scramble, wrap each burrito tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then store them in a resealable bag. Label the bag with the filling and cooking instructions.
  • Pack a Cooler: Keep your breakfast burritos fresh and warm by packing them in an insulated cooler with an ice pack.
  • Choose Portable Sides: Round out your camping breakfast with portable sides like fresh fruit, yogurt parfaits, or granola bars.
  • Easy Clean-Up: Use disposable plates, cups, and utensils to minimize cleanup.

Conclusion:

Camping breakfast burritos are a versatile and delicious way to start your day outdoors. With a little planning and preparation, you can enjoy a hot, hearty breakfast that will fuel your adventures. Whether you prefer classic fillings like scrambled eggs and bacon or more unique combinations like black beans and salsa, there's a breakfast burrito recipe out there for every taste.
