How to make Bacon Egg and Cheese Breakfast Burrito

Cook the bacon:

• First, without adding any oil, let the bacon cook in its fat on a skillet over medium heat. Once it is done, put the cooked pieces in paper towels then, drain about half of the excess fat.

Cook the hashbrowns:

• Next, using the same skillet, cook the hashbrowns. Just follow the instructions in the packaging.

Prepare the eggs:

• Whisk them with half and half. Wipe the skillet clean, melt some butter, and pour the mixture when the bubbles start to appear on the butter. Cook over low heat and stir slowly when it starts to curdle. To taste, sprinkle salt, pepper, and paprika.

Assemble:

• Get one tortilla and lay it flat on a working surface. At the center, layer the ingredients starting from the hashbrowns. Then, roll up the sides to secure.

Serve:

• Serve while warm with a side of hot sauce!

You can extend the shelf life and make it a freezer meal by putting it in a freezer bag. You can thaw and reheat in the oven or microwave within 3 months.

Recipe Tips:

• Make sure that you put just enough filling in the middle of the tortilla so that it will be easy to wrap and seal.
