Ingredients

10 large eggs

1/4 cup milk

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 tablespoon butter or oil

8 slices bacon

1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup diced onion

1/2 cup diced red bell pepper

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley or cilantro (optional)

8 large flour tortillas

Optional add-ins: cooked potatoes, black beans, spinach, jalapeños, hot sauce


Instructions

1. Cook the bacon in a skillet until crispy, then drain and chop.

2. Sauté onion and bell pepper in a bit of bacon grease until soft.

3. Whisk eggs with milk, salt, and pepper, then scramble them until just set.

4. Warm tortillas in a microwave or skillet to prevent tearing.

5. Layer eggs, bacon, veggies, and cheese in the center of each tortilla.

6. Fold and roll burritos tightly to seal.

7. Wrap each in foil or parchment, then place in a freezer bag or container.

8. Freeze for up to 3 months.

9. Reheat in microwave (2–3 mins) or crisp on a skillet for a toasted finish.


Notes

Cool cooked ingredients before assembling to avoid soggy tortillas.

For a vegetarian version, skip the bacon and double up on veggies or beans.

Don’t forget to label and date your wrapped burritos for easy tracking.
