These Crispy Sausage Egg Breakfast Burritos are hearty enough for breakfast, brunch or brinner and freezer friendly in order to make them in advance, too!
crispy sausage egg breakfast burritos on plate with fruit
Perhaps you have had breakfast burritos? They’re nearly the same as the burritos you might have for your meal, except that you utilize eggs, rather than meat, to fill the tortillas. You can include some breakfast sausage towards the eggs, throw in a few veggies and perhaps some hash browns or fried potatoes.
We’ve been making these sausage and egg burritos for breakfast since way, in the past. See, we determined that as the kids don’t enjoy eggs, they’ll eat just about anything wrapped inside a tortilla! Actually, I’m gonna be completely honest here and inform you that this Hubs makes them. I really do the pancakes, muffins and French toast, but he’s the egg man.
