Ingredients

1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 large potatoes, diced
1 onion, diced
1/2 bell pepper, diced
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
8 eggs, beaten
1 lb breakfast sausage or 1 lb chorizo sausage, cooked and drained
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
10 large flour tortillas
nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

Heat 1/4 cup of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry potatoes until almost cooked through, then add onions and peppers, continuing to cook until vegetables are tender. Drain, set aside.
In the same skillet, melt butter or margarine over medium heat. Scramble eggs, adding potatoes, vegetables, and sausage during the last few moments of cooking. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Top each tortilla with cheese and part of the egg mixture, roll into a burrito. Spray a hot grill (I use a family size George Foreman) with cooking spray. Grill for approximately 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
Serve hot with homemade Pico De Gallo, salsa, sour cream, or perhaps Spanish rice and refried beans.

GRILLED BREAKFAST BURRITO - 1 PAN

My favorite part of this recipe is you use one large frying pan and that's it.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 c tater tots
1/2 small onion
1 lb bulk sausage
1 can(s) chopped chilis
8 eggs
4 large flour tortillas, room temperature
2 Tbsp real butter
1 c shredded cheddar cheese (i use sharp)
salt and pepper to taste
1 tsp ground cumin seed (if you want)
4 sprig(s) cilantro, fresh

Steps:

1. Heat large non-stick frying pan to med-high, melting the butter
2. Add the tater tots and fry until you can start breaking them up (I use a lid to speed things up). Add the sausage, breaking it up into the pan. Reduce heat to medium.
3. Add the finely chopped onion and the chilis. Stir frequently for about 4-5 minutes.
4. Stir until tots are broken up and browning and the sausage is JUST getting done. Add all the eggs into the mix and stir until they are all done. (You can stir the eggs all up in a bowl if you want to but I just break them all into the mix and keep stirring.)Season to taste. Do NOT turn stove off - just turn it down a little more.
5. Place tortillas on dinner plates. Sprinkle about 1/4 cup of cheese into middle of each one. Divide the fried mixture into 4 portions into middle of tortilla. Fold the tortilla sides in (like building an envelope) then fold the bottom up, rolling the burrito.
6. With the pan still on a low medium to medium setting, place each burrito back into pan, rolled edge down, and let them grill about 2-3 minutes on each side (keep an eye on them). If you have a weight to put on top of them that is great. I serve with pico de gallo or salsa and a fork. You won't be able to just pick these up! Garnish with some torn spring of cilantro.

Tips:

Choose the Right Tortillas: Select sturdy and pliable tortillas that can hold all the fillings without breaking apart. Corn or flour tortillas are both good options.
Prepare the Fillings Ahead of Time: To save time in the morning, cook the bacon, sausage, or veggies the night before. You can also chop the peppers, onions, and cheese in advance.
Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the tastier your breakfast burritos will be. Opt for ripe avocados, flavorful salsa, and crisp lettuce.
Don't Overstuff the Burritos: While it's tempting to pack in as much filling as possible, avoid overstuffing the burritos. This will make them difficult to wrap and eat.
Cook the Burritos in Batches: If you're making a large batch of burritos, cook them in batches. This will prevent the tortillas from getting soggy.
Serve with Your Favorite Toppings: Once the burritos are cooked, serve them with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include salsa, sour cream, guacamole, and hot sauce.

Conclusion:

Grilled breakfast burritos are a delicious and portable way to start your day. With a variety of fillings to choose from, you can customize them to your liking. Plus, they're easy to make ahead of time and freeze for later. So, next time you're looking for a quick and satisfying breakfast, give grilled breakfast burritos a try!
