These are the best frozen breakfast burritos. They are filled with turkey bacon, green onion, eggs, bell pepper, and cheese. They only take a few minutes to heat up in the morning and are easy to eat on the go. You will thank yourself for making these.
Breakfast burritos got me through many early mornings in college. They are still my go-to breakfast when I have the time to make them. A few months ago, I started buying frozen breakfast burritos from the grocery store. Some were good, but most were bad.
Since a good breakfast burrito has the ability to make my morning better, I decide to start making my own – the best frozen breakfast burrito- instead of settling for the expensive and not-so-great ones at the grocery store.
Homemade Frozen breakfast burritos are pretty easy to make. Dedicate 35 minutes of your Sunday and you will have 10 perfectly delicious breakfast burritos waiting for you in the freezer for the rest of the week.
I tried to make these burritos as healthy as possible since I do plan to eat them multiple times a week. I used turkey bacon that has less fat and calories than traditional bacon, added veggies, and just a hint of cheese. In the end, each burrito is 300 calories with 21 grams of protein.
Do you have questions?
I tried out a few different methods to reheating a frozen burrito, but this is the easiest, quickest, and I think the tastiest way.
Wrap your frozen burrito in a paper towel and microwave it for one minute, then flip it over and microwave it for 15-45 seconds, until it’s no longer frozen. Then heat a skillet over medium heat. Toast each side of the burrito for 1-2 minutes or until it starts to brown.
