Breakfast Burrito

For students that wake up in just enough time to get to class, and not enough time to run to the cafe or dash to the kitchen for a meal, this breakfast burrito recipe is a perfect grab-and-go choice. This can be frozen for up to a week, popped in the microwave for a minute and 30 seconds, and eaten on-the-go!

Ingredients (1 serving)

• 1 Flour or whole wheat tortilla
• 2 Large eggs, scrambled
• 1/4 cup of Bacon, chopped or in strips
• 1/4 cup of Red and green peppers, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup of Tomatoes, chopped
• 1/4 cup of Onions, chopped
• 1 teaspoon butter

Directions:

First, place bacon on a cool frying pan and place on stove on low heat. It is best to cook bacon on low heat and slowly to insure that it will be cooked properly and to the desired crispness. Cook bacon until fully cooked, remove, place on a plate and set to the side. 

Next, using left over grease from previously cooked bacon, add chopped onions, tomatoes and red and green peppers. Cook these ingredients until fragrant and slightly browned. Remove them from the frying pan and onto a plate and place to the side. 

When cooking the eggs, it is best to clean the skillet of all bacon grease, for this can over power the flavor of the eggs, unless that is the desired taste. Set skillet on the stove and set to medium heat and add teaspoon of butter. When butter has fully melted in skillet, add whisked eggs and cheese, then start to stir eggs with a rubber spatula or fork. Cook eggs until they are no longer runny, remove them from the skillet, place on a plate and set to the side. 

Take two paper towels, wet them with water, and ring them out releasing all excess water. Place tortillas between the two paper towels and place them in the microwave for 30 seconds. Take the tortillas out of the microwave and place them on a plate. 

Now it is time to assemble the breakfast burrito by placing all the ingredients on the tortilla, folding the sides and rolling the tortilla in one direction. This burrito can either be eaten right after it is cooked, or wrapped in aluminum foil and put in the freezer for up to a week.

Enjoy!
