Tips and Variations
- Don’t skip the chilling. After the egg scramble is done, make sure to let the mixture cool down. As in put it in the refrigerator. This will ensure that the tortillas won’t tear when you roll them. (The first time I put the filling in and rolled these guys up, the eggs were warm and immediately tore the tortillas. Lessons learned.)
- Cut the plastic wrap in advance. Have your plastic wrap already prepped so all you have to do once the burritos are rolled is wrap them up so they keep their shape.
- Make them your own. If you want to switch up the meat, veggies, or cheese, go for it! Just keep the proportions the same so you have the right amount of filling for the tortillas.
- Oven: Bake unwrapped burritos at 400°F for 20–25 minutes.
- Microwave: Wrap in a paper towel and microwave on high for about 3 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- These burritos are great on their own, but you can also pair them with Roasted Tomato Salsa or Avocado Salsa Verde to add a little Tex-Mex flair.
- Store the wrapped freezer breakfast burritos in a zip-top bag for up to 3 months. When you’re reheating the burritos, if you want a crispy exterior, go the oven route. If you need them in a hurry, then the microwave is the way to go.
