Make-Ahead Breakfast Burritos

Here’s how to put together Make-Ahead Breakfast Burritos!

I used to make Breakfast Burritos like this – with Homemade Tortillas and Homemade Turkey Sausage. Wow. I was ambitious and I was able to use my time differently then.

Now, with a houseful of kids with special needs, food prep looks a lot different. Here’s the fastest way I’ve found to put together a large amount of Breakfast Burritos, and I highly recommend doing this! These go together fast, can be frozen if needed, and reheat easily in an air fryer or oven.

Breakfast Burrito Variations Yum

• I make our Breakfast Burritos as simple as can be with eggs, sausage, and cheese. This is because we have a wide variety of specific food preferences at our house. Having just basic ingredients in our burritos allows each person to eat it as-is, add in extras, or dip their burrito in salsa or another dip if they want.
• Any meat will work in these burritos. Sub sausage for bacon or ham for a great variation.
• Use your favorite shredded cheese in these. Our favorite is Colby Jack – but cheddar, pepper jack, or even mozzarella would be good.
• Use any size tortilla! I use small tortillas because we have small kids. The adults in our home easily eat three or four of these. Use larger tortillas for bigger appetites.
• Some great add-ins for these burritos would be: tomatoes, onions, peppers, avocado, black beans, or salsa.
