This recipe rolls eggs, bacon and cheese into a flour tortilla, but you can have fun experimenting with all sorts of add-ons. What\u2019s more, this egg and cheese burrito recipe freezes easily, so make a big batch and save the rest for a quick work-week breakfast or lunch option.

Don\u2019t toss out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/what-to-do-with-bacon-grease\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/what-to-do-with-bacon-grease\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">leftover bacon grease<\/a>! It\u2019s a great cooking oil, among other things.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eggs:<\/strong> If you haven\u2019t learned how to make pillowy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/scrambled-eggs\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/scrambled-eggs\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">scrambled eggs<\/a>, you may be pleasantly surprised by how easy it is.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pepper:<\/strong> While you can use the preground stuff, freshly cracked black pepper is much more flavorful.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tortillas:<\/strong> Flour tortillas are the traditional choice for wrapping burritos. Not only are they more popular in the north of Mexico, where burritos originate, but they\u2019re also more pliable than corn tortillas.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cheese:<\/strong> We love cheddar cheese for egg burritos since it\u2019s super flavorful and great for melting. That said, you can use any melting cheese you love.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Green onion:<\/strong> Because green onions can be eaten raw, they\u2019re ideal for chopping and tossing into recipes like these.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Fry the bacon<\/h3>\n<p>In a large, heavy skillet, cook the bacon until crisp. Place the cooked bacon strips on paper towels, reserving about 1 to 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the pan.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Scramble the eggs<\/h3>\n<p>\u200b\u200bWhisk together the eggs, salt and pepper. Using the same bacon skillet over medium heat, pour in the egg mixture. Cook and stir the eggs until scrambled and no liquid egg remains. Remove the skillet from the heat.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Assemble the burritos<\/h3>\n<p>Spoon about 1\/4 cup scrambled eggs onto the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle with cheese, bacon and green onions. Roll the burritos and serve.<\/p>\n<h2>Egg Burrito Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Swap for the bacon:<\/strong> Using another meat will change the flavor of these egg burritos considerably. You may enjoy Mexican chorizo, breakfast sausage or steak tips.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add some tasty extras:<\/strong> The best part about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/burrito-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/burrito-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">burrito recipes<\/a> is that you don\u2019t need to be too precious about it. Got leftovers?\u00a0 Toss em\u2019 in. How about hash browns, veggies or avocado? Those work too.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Egg Burritos<\/h2>\n<p>To store any leftovers, wrap the egg burritos in either <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/bees-wrap\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/bees-wrap\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">reusable beeswax wraps<\/a> or foil, place them in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, we suggest placing them in the microwave or in the oven, using the convection setting.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I freeze egg burritos?<\/h3>\n<p>To freeze this recipe, wrap each egg burrito in foil and place it in an airtight container. Stored like this, egg burritos can last in the freezer for up to three months. When about ready to enjoy, transfer them to the fridge to thaw overnight.<\/p>\n<h2>Egg Burrito Tips<\/h2>\n<h3>How can I make breakfast burritos that don\u2019t get soggy?<\/h3>\n<p>Other than eating them as soon as they\u2019re made, the best way to prevent your burrito from getting soggy is to add the filling once it has cooled down a bit. Rolling piping hot ingredients into a flour tortilla causes it to steam and soften.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you wrap a burrito properly?<\/h3>\n<p>Learning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-fold-a-burrito\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-fold-a-burrito\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">how to fold a burrito<\/a> is a big deal, since eating one can get quite messy. Apart from the fundamentals, we also suggest placing the folded burrito on a skillet over high heat for a few minutes\u2014this helps seal it and create a crispy crust.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the secret to the best burrito?<\/h3>\n<p>Just as with any other dish, it\u2019s important to play with textures, flavors and even colors when constructing your burrito. Also, avoid under- or overstuffing egg burritos\u2014just as you don\u2019t want to taste too much of the tortilla, you also don\u2019t want it to be bursting at the seams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Egg burritos are a total fusion between Mexican and American cooking styles.
