Ingredients

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage
  • 12 ​eggs
  • 4 Russet potatoes
  • 6 large flour tortillas
  • 6 tbsp Pre-made Pico de Gallo
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup 2% milk

Instructions

  • Peel and cut the potatoes into small cubes.
  • Crack 12 eggs in a large bowl. Add a quarter cup of 2% milk. Whisk until combined.
  • Set out your salsa, tortillas, cheese, aluminum foil, and any other ingredients you want to include.
  • Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Then cover, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes or until the potatoes soften. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika (optional). Once cooked, remove from the skillet and place in a large mixing bowl.
  • To the same skillet, add the breakfast sausage. Use a wooden spoon or a spatula to break the sausage into small pieces. Stir frequently until the sausage is cooked through. Remove from the skillet and add to the same large mixing bowl as the potatoes. Stir to combine.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the same skillet. Stir occasionally, scrambling the eggs. Cook to your desired level of doneness. Then, remove the eggs from the skillet and pour them into the same large mixing bowl. Stir the egg, potato, and sausage until combined.
  • Lay out a square of aluminum foil on a flat work surface. Place a large tortilla on the foil. Add a scoop of the burrito mix to the middle of the tortilla. Drizzle a spoonful of pico on the mixture. Then, top it off with a sprinkle of cheddar cheese. Fold the sides in and roll the burrito. Then, wrap the burrito in the foil. Repeat this until you run out of burrito mix.
  • Place your high protein breakfast burritos in the freezer.
  • Remove a homemade burrito the night before you are ready to eat it. Set the oven to 400°F and bake in the foil for 15-20 mins. If using the microwave, remove the foil and place it on a microwave-safe plate. Start with 30 seconds. Then rotate and continue microwaving in 10-20 second increments until you get to your desired warmness.
