Instructions

  1. 01

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt.

  2. 02

    Heat a nonstick pan over low to medium heat and grease with oil or butter.

  3. 03

    Pour in the egg mixture and stir gently until almost scrambled, about 2 minutes.

  4. 04

    Add the beans and salsa and cook for 2 minutes until heated through. Remove from heat and stir in the cheese until melted.

  5. 05

    Warm each tortilla in a dry pan or microwave for 20 to 30 seconds.

  6. 06

    Spoon the filling down the center of each tortilla, fold in the sides, and roll tightly from the bottom up.

  7. 07

    Heat a large nonstick skillet sprayed with cooking spray over medium heat. Add 2 burritos at a time, seam side down, and cook until golden, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for 2 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining burritos.

  8. 08

    Serve immediately, or if making ahead, let cool completely, wrap each burrito tightly in foil, and store in a freezer-safe bag labeled with the date. Freeze for up to 3 months or refrigerate for up to 4 days.

  9. 09

    Oven: bake foil-wrapped at 400°F for 20 to 25 minutes.

  10. 10

    Air Fryer: remove foil and heat at 400°F for 10 to 12 minutes. This is my favorite method.

  11. 11

    Microwave: remove foil, wrap in a damp paper towel, defrost for 5 minutes, then cook on high for 1 to 2 minutes.
