Chef's Note

These burritos are perfect for busy university students! For maximum flavor, let the frozen hash browns thaw slightly before cooking - this helps them brown better. You can customize these with any vegetables you have on hand, making them both budget-friendly and adaptable. One weekend prep session gives you breakfast for a week!

Ingredients
  • 6 whole large eggs

  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 medium red bell pepper

  • 1/2 medium onion

  • 1 cup frozen hash browns

  • 1 cup marble cheese

  • 6 whole large flour tortillas

  • 1/2 cup black beans

  • 1/4 cup salsa

  • 2 stalks green onions

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin

Instructions
  • 1

    Dice 1/2 medium onion and 1 medium red bell pepper into small pieces. Slice 2 green onions thinly.

  • 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together 6 eggs, 2 tablespoons milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.

  • 3

    Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, cooking for about 3-4 minutes until softened.

  • 4

    Add 1 cup frozen hash browns to the skillet along with 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and 1/4 teaspoon cumin. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the hash browns begin to brown.

  • 5

    Add 1/2 cup black beans to the skillet and stir to combine.

  • 6

    Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables and hash browns. Cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are just set but still slightly moist, about 2-3 minutes.

  • 7

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in 1/4 cup salsa and the sliced green onions.

  • 8

    Warm 6 large flour tortillas in the microwave for 20-30 seconds to make them more pliable.

  • 9

    Place equal portions of the egg mixture in the center of each tortilla, then top each with about 2-3 tablespoons of shredded marble cheese.

  • 10

    Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll up tightly to form burritos.

  • 11

    To store: Wrap each burrito individually in aluminum foil or parchment paper, then place in a freezer-safe bag. Label with the date and freeze for up to 1 month.

  • 12

    To reheat from frozen: Remove foil, wrap in a paper towel, and microwave for 2-3 minutes, flipping halfway through. For a crispy exterior, heat in a toaster oven for 8-10 minutes at 350°F after microwaving.
