It's back to school time in our house, as I'm sure it is in most of yours as well. So long, leisurely mornings, and hello hectic craziness of trying to get everyone out the door on time. If there is one part of your morning routine that you cannot skimp on, it's breakfast. As a teacher, I see first hand the negative effects of children who do not eat a filling, healthy breakfast.
These breakfast burritos are something you can make ahead of time for a quick, filling breakfast on the go. I always make a big batch and freeze them. They are easy to pop in the microwave in the morning and my boys both gobble them up.
Breakfast Burritos
1 lb breakfast sausage (pork or turkey works just fine)
8 eggs, scrambled
shredded cheese
10-12 tortillas
Instructions:
Brown sausage and drain on a paper towel. In the same pan, cook scrambled eggs, then add the sausage back to the pan and combine with eggs. You can easily store this in the fridge for the week and make the burritos each morning by adding egg/sausage mixture and cheese to the tortilla. Or, you can make up the burritos and freeze for later. I've found it's best to lay burritos out on a cookie sheet in a single layer, then put the entire pan in the freezer. Once they are frozen, you can transfer to a freezer friendly container. To reheat, simply wrap in a paper towel and microwave for 90 seconds, turning half way thru.
