Skillet Breakfast Burritos are packed with protein and dairy to start your day off right!
It’s all made with country sausage, pieces of bacon, fluffy scrambled eggs, diced crispy potatoes and then topped with cheese. All put together in a hot skillet. And when the cheese is all melted, it’s ready to wrap into a soft, warm flour tortilla.
This is the perfect breakfast to take out the door with you in the mornings. You can even make some extra burritos and freeze them individually with plastic wrap around them. Then just unwrap and warm up the next morning.
I make these pretty much every weekend. But in my case, I make extra for those middle-of-the-night hungry moments my husband has! (He loves these!)
Let me show you how easy these burritos are to make. It only takes about 30 to 40 minutes from start to finish… and have everything done at the same time! First, I start with 2 heated skillets.
In the first skillet (or you could use a frying pan, of course.) Cut and start frying your diced potatoes in 2 tablespoon of oil. (Any kind of oil is fine.)
Meanwhile, chop your bacon into pieces.
I use a large electric skillet to cook the cut bacon on one end and the ground sausage on the other. This makes it so both meats get done about the same time without touching. Drain the bacon on paper towels.
This is perfect for every one to get involved making these. While your bacon, sausage and potatoes are almost ready… Get your eggs ready. They will be your last thing to cook while your cooked ingredients are setting off to the side.
In the pan that you took out your cooked potatoes, add 2 tablespoons of butter. Then add your beaten eggs (with 1 tablespoon of milk to make them fluffy!)
Keep stirring the eggs until you no longer see shiny eggs. When the eggs are dull…they are done! *If you want to add a little salt to the eggs, do it when they’re almost done cooked. Adding salt before will result in runny eggs.
Now is the time to add the bacon, sausage and potatoes together in with the already cooked eggs. Top with cheese and put a lid on top for the cheese to melt. Leave on burner, but turn off heat.
When cheese is all melted, put into some soft, warm tortillas with your favorite salsa.
Enjoy, my friends!
