Ingredients

Scale

Proteins and Eggs

  • 6 large eggs
  • 12 oz breakfast sausage, crumbled

Vegetables

  • 2 cups diced potatoes
  • 1 cup diced bell peppers (red or green)
  • 1 cup diced onion

Dairy

  • 1 ½ cups shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack)

Other

  • 6 flour tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, pepper, and preferred herbs (such as oregano or thyme) to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables and Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Dice the potatoes, bell peppers, and onion into even pieces. Toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs, then spread them evenly on a large sheet pan. Roast for 20-25 minutes until golden and tender, stirring once halfway through.
  2. Cook the Sausage: While the veggies roast, crumble the breakfast sausage into a skillet over medium heat. Cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it apart during cooking. Drain any excess fat and set aside.
  3. Scramble the Eggs: Beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. In a nonstick pan over medium-low heat, gently scramble the eggs until just set but still soft, avoiding overcooking to maintain a creamy texture.
  4. Combine All Fillings: Once the potatoes and veggies are roasted, add the cooked sausage and scrambled eggs to the sheet pan. Gently mix everything together to evenly combine the flavors.
  5. Assemble the Burritos: Warm the tortillas slightly to make them pliable. Spoon a generous amount of the filling onto each tortilla, sprinkle shredded cheese on top, then roll tightly into a burrito shape.
  6. Optional Baking for Melty Perfection: For extra melty cheese and a slightly crispy exterior, place the wrapped burritos back on the sheet pan and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 5-7 minutes until the cheese melts beautifully.

Notes

  • Evenly dice vegetables to ensure consistent roasting and texture.
  • Scramble eggs gently to keep them fluffy and creamy inside the burritos.
  • Use warm tortillas to soften them and prevent cracking during rolling.
  • Layer cheese inside the burrito to act as glue and hold the fillings together.
  • Double the recipe for easy meal prep or feeding larger groups.
