Chef's Note
For extra flavor, try adding a tablespoon of your favorite fresh herbs like cilantro or chives to the egg mixture. You can also customize each burrito with different fillings before freezing - just label them with masking tape so you know what's inside!

Ingredients
6 each large flour tortillas
8 large eggs
2 tablespoons milk
2 medium russet potatoes
1/2 pound breakfast sausage
1 medium bell pepper
1/2 medium yellow onion
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup salsa (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- 1
Peel and dice 2 medium russet potatoes into small 1/2-inch cubes.
- 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender. Season with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and transfer to a plate.
- 3
In the same skillet, cook 1/2 pound of breakfast sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a spatula until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Transfer to the plate with the potatoes.
- 4
Dice 1 medium bell pepper and 1/2 medium yellow onion. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and sauté the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until softened.
- 5
In a bowl, whisk together 8 large eggs, 2 tablespoons of milk, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- 6
Lower the heat to medium-low and add the egg mixture to the skillet with the vegetables. Stir gently until the eggs are softly scrambled, about 3-4 minutes.
- 7
Return the potatoes and sausage to the skillet and stir to combine everything. Remove from heat.
- 8
Warm 6 large flour tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them more pliable.
- 9
Place a tortilla on a flat surface and add approximately 3/4 cup of the filling in the center. Sprinkle with about 2-3 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese.
- 10
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll from the bottom up to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- 11
To freeze: Let the burritos cool completely, then wrap each one tightly in aluminum foil. Place in a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
- 12
To reheat from frozen: Remove foil, wrap in a paper towel, and microwave for 2-3 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until heated through. Alternatively, reheat in a 350°F oven (still wrapped in foil) for about 20 minutes.
