🌯 Breakfast Burritos Recipes offer a flavorful and hearty start to your day with a fresh avocado-tomato salsa and spicy sausage.
🍳 These burritos are simple to prepare, perfect for quick mornings or make-ahead meals that are both satisfying and delicious.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

– 1 large avocado, peeled, pitted, and diced

– 1/2 cup diced seeded tomatoes (from 1 to 2 tomatoes)

– 1 small shallot, minced (about 2 tablespoons)

– 1 clove garlic, minced

– 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced

– 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (from 1 lime)

– 1/2 teaspoon salt

– 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

– 1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro

– 4 large eggs

– 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika

– 1/4 teaspoon salt

– 1/2 lb spicy sausage (such as chorizo or Italian), removed from casings

– 1 1/3 cups (6 oz) shredded Monterey Jack cheese

– 4 (10-inch) burrito-size flour tortillas

– Vegetable oil for cooking

Instructions

1-Crack eggs into a bowl, whisk with salt and pepper until well combined. For vegan options, prepare scrambled tofu.

2-Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add diced onions and bell peppers originally mentioned, but we’re using the recipe’s sausage here sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.

3-Pour whisked eggs into the skillet, cook gently while stirring to create soft curds. Cook the sausage as directed above.

4-Warm tortillas on another pan for 30 seconds each side for easy rolling.

5-Layer cooked eggs, sausage, cheese, and about 1/4 cup of salsa onto each tortilla.

6-Roll tortillas tightly, folding in edges to secure fillings. Lightly coat the pan with oil and heat over medium heat, then cook seam side down until golden, about 3 minutes per side.

Notes

🌶️ Reduce or omit jalapeño for a milder salsa.
🕒 Assemble burritos ahead and refrigerate tightly wrapped before cooking.
