1. Ingredients for a Flavor-Packed Morning
To create 3–4 burritos (Serves 2–3), you will need:
- 4 Large Eggs & 2 tbsp Milk: For a smooth and creamy scramble.
- 3–4 Large Flour Tortillas: Warmed for a golden-brown finish.
- 100g Cooked Sausage (or Bacon): For that juicy flavor and extra protein.
- ½ Cup Shredded Cheese: Use Cheddar or Monterey Jack for a rich smothered sauce feel.
- Fresh Veggies: ½ cup bell peppers and ¼ cup onion for a fresh veggie boost.
- Spices: Salt and black pepper to taste for a bold seasoning blend.
2. Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Veggie Base
Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté your onion and bell peppers until softened. This adds a fresh crunchy texture and natural sweetness to the filling.
Step 2: Scramble the Protein Powerhouse
Whisk your eggs with milk and pour them into the skillet with the veggies and meat. Cook gently until the eggs are just set but still soft. This ensures your burrito stays moist and flavorful even after reheating.
Step 3: Assemble and Roll
Warm your tortillas to make them pliable. Spoon the mixture onto each tortilla, sprinkle with cheese, and roll tightly. Pro-Tip: For a crispy chicken dinner magic style crunch, sear the rolled burrito in a clean skillet for 1-2 minutes until slightly crispy.
