Ingredients
Scale
2 large eggs
2 strips bacon (or sausage/ham)
1 tbsp butter or oil
1/4 cup diced bell peppers
1/4 cup diced onions
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 large flour tortilla (10-inch)
1 tbsp sour cream (optional)
1 tbsp salsa (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh cilantro or green onions (for garnish)
Hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
Cook bacon: In a skillet, cook bacon until crispy. Remove, drain on paper towels, and chop into bits.
Sauté veggies: In the same pan, melt butter and sauté onions and bell peppers until soft (2-3 minutes).
Scramble eggs: Push veggies to one side, pour beaten eggs into the pan, and scramble until fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper.
Warm tortilla: Heat the tortilla in a dry pan or microwave for 10 seconds to make it pliable.
Assemble burrito: Layer eggs, bacon, cheese, sour cream, and salsa in the center of the tortilla. Fold sides inward, then roll tightly.
Optional crisp: For extra texture, grill the burrito seam-side down in a pan for 1-2 minutes.
Serve: Slice in half and garnish with cilantro or green onions. Serve with hot sauce if desired.
Notes
Make-ahead: Wrap burritos in foil and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave.
Customize: Add avocado, black beans, potatoes, or jalapeños for extra flavor.
Vegetarian: Omit bacon and use sautéed mushrooms or tofu.
Freezer-friendly: Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 1 month. Reheat in the oven (350°F for 15-20 minutes).
