Base Filling

1 lb breakfast sausage (pork, turkey, chicken, or plant-based)
6 large eggs
2 cups diced potatoes or frozen hash browns
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, pepper jack, or Mexican blend)
Salt & pepper, to taste

Wrap

6–8 large flour tortillas (burrito-size)

Black or pinto beans (rinsed and drained)
Green chiles or salsa (very well-drained)
Hot sauce, cumin, or smoked paprika

Instructions

Cook the sausage
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked. Break it into crumbles. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Scramble the eggs
Whisk eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. In the same skillet (using the sausage drippings), cook eggs gently until just set and still soft. Add to the bowl.
Crisp the potatoes
Cook potatoes in the same skillet until hot and lightly crispy. Add to the bowl.
Combine the filling
Add cheese and any chosen add-ins. Stir gently to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Important: Let the filling cool for 10–15 minutes before assembling.
Warm the tortillas
Heat tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and flexible.
Assemble burritos
Place about ¾–1 cup filling on the lower third of each tortilla. Fold the bottom over the filling, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly.
Wrap and freeze
Wrap each burrito tightly in foil or parchment paper. Place in a labeled freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months.

Notes

Cool the filling completely before wrapping to avoid soggy tortillas
Drain all add-ins well, especially salsa and vegetables
Don’t overfill—tight burritos reheat better
Use large, flexible tortillas and warm them before rolling
