From Our Kitchen: Frozen Breakfast Burritos

Last week, Harris mentioned that he was going to be going into work super early for at least the next week or so, and, being the nice guy he is, thought it would be easier on me if I came up with something he could make for himself in the morning versus me getting up at like 4am to make breakfast for him. While I miss having that time with him first thing in the morning, I also really like not waking up at 4am! I wanted to make sure he got a little bit of everything he needs in the morning (without having to pre-make a bunch of eggs which would inevitably become rubbery after a day or so), and that would be really quick and easy for him to heat up. Enter the breakfast burrito! Probably my favorite fast food breakfast of all time is the Whataburger breakfast taquito (which is really a burrito to me) with egg, sausage, and cheese. I did some perusing of various frozen homemade breakfast burrito recipes to see if there was anything special I needed to do, and came up with a great recipe, which has got to be a healthier variation of the Whataburger version! This would be a perfect thing to whip up on Sunday (they only take about 30 minutes), and then have breakfast ready for the whole week!

What You'll Need:
Note: I made 15 burritos, so that is what this recipe makes, but you can easily modify to make more or less!

• 15 flour tortillas
• 1 1/2 dozen eggs (you need about 1 1/4 eggs per burrito, in case you modify!)
• Splash of milk
• Salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper
• 1 package Jimmy Dean turkey sausage (you could easily substitute pork sausage, bacon, or turkey bacon here)
• Shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese
• Saran wrap (side note: I abhor plastic wrap, but I have recently learned that it is moderately less offensive if you buy brand name Saran wrap versus off-brand plastic wrap. Just an observation.)
• Gallon ziploc bag

What You'll Do:

1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Crack all of your eggs in a large bowl. Break the yolks and scramble with a wire whisk. Add a splash of milk (for fluffiness). Add salt, pepper, and cayenne, to taste.
3. Pour eggs into heated skillet and let sit for a minute before beginning to scramble. Scramble until eggs are almost done (you can leave just a little runny because they will cook more when you reheat the burritos, or you can cook until all the way done and then they will be extra done when you reheat. Personal preference all the way!).
4. Create an assembly line of tortillas on your countertop. 
5. Add a spoonful of eggs to each tortilla.
6. Add a spoonful of turkey sausage (Jimmy Dean turkey sausage is pre-cooked, so no need to warm up before you assemble the burritos since they are just going in the freezer!).
7. Sprinkle with as little or as much cheese as you desire.
8. Fold in the ends of your tortilla, and then roll your burrito. Place on Saran wrap, and wrap securely. Place individually wrapper burritos in ziploc bag, and then in the freezer.
9. To reheat, remove burrito from Saran wrap, place on microwave-safe plate, and heat for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
10. Enjoy!
