Ingredients
- 10 large eggs
- 1 red bell pepper finely diced
- 5 green onions sliced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 pound chorizo
- ¾ cup shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese
- 8 8-inch taco sized flour tortillas
Instructions
How to make breakfast burritos:
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, diced bell pepper, sliced green onions, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Add ground chorizo to a skillet over medium heat. Remove casing if needed. Cook until the chorizo has browned and cooked through. Transfer the chorizo to a plate, and drain any excess greese from the pan.
- Add the egg mixture to your skillet. Pull a rubber spatula across the bottom of the pan while the eggs cook. Once the eggs have set, remove the skillet from the heat.
- To make the burritos, add eggs, chorizo, and 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese to a tortilla. Wrap it and cover it in foil. Place the burritos in a large freezer bag and place them in the freezer.
How to reheat a frozen breakfast burrito:
- Unwrap the frozen burrito from its foil and wrap it in a paper towel. Microwave it for two minute, then flip the burrito and microwave it for 30-60 seconds until it’s no longer frozen.
- Optional: For a crispy burrito, heat a skillet over medium heat. Toast each side of the burrito for 1-2 minutes or until the tortilla starts to brown.

Write down the reheating instructions on the freezer bag to help “future you” remember what to do.
