Fill breakfast burritos as you would tacos: with salsa;
chopped fresh tomato; cilantro; black olives; sliced scallion;
chopped chiles; avocado slices; and cooked chorizo,
bacon, sausage, or ground meat; and Crisp Panfried
Potatoes—alone or in combination.
You can double or triple the batch, wrap them well in
plastic or foil, and tuck them away in your freezer. Reheat
foil-wrapped burritos in a 350°F oven for 20 minutes or
so, or remove the wrapping, drape each burrito with a
paper towel, and reheat in the microwave for a couple of
minutes.
1 cup crumbled fresh cheese or queso fresco or
grated cheddar or Jack cheese
How to make
Breakfast Burritos
Warm the beans or chili in a small pot. To warm
the tortillas, wrap them in foil and put in a 300°F oven
for about 10 minutes or stack them between 2 damp
paper towels and microwave for 30 to 60 seconds.
Beat the eggs lightly and combine with the butter
or oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Cook,
stirring frequently and scraping the sides of the pan until
cooked as you like, no more than a few minutes.
When the eggs are nearly done, remove them from
the heat and assemble the burritos. Spread the cheese on
each tortilla and top with 1/2 cup or so of beans. Add the
eggs and any additional fillings, sauces, or garnishes you
like. Roll up
and serve.
