- 1 Tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
- 12 breakfast sausages removed from casing
- 8 large eggs lightly beaten
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- 1 Tbsp butter
- ¼ cup chopped onion
- 2 tomatoes diced
- 1 bell pepper diced
- 2 Tbsp fresh cilantro chopped
- 8 oz refried beans
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or a mix
- 10 large flour tortillas
In a frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Squeeze breakfast sausage out of the casing and fry until brown, breaking up into small pieces with a spatula while cooking.
In a bowl combine eggs and cream. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Saute onions until translucent, then add the bell pepper. Saute for 2 minutes, then add the tomato and saute for one more minute.
Pour egg mixture into the pan and scramble until cooked. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro.
Assemble the burritos: Smear 1 Tbsp of refried beans on the bottom half of the tortilla leaving a 1-inch rim to the edge. Layer scrambled eggs, 2-3 Tbsp cheese, and sausage on top.
Roll burrito up from the bottom then fold the left and right corners in toward the center and continue to roll into a tight burrito. Put seam side down, set aside, and repeat with remaining tortillas. Freeze (see instructions above the recipe card) or cook right away.
To eat right away, heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place burritos seam side down in the pan and cook until the bottom of the burritos is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
