Delicious and easy make-ahead freezer breakfast burritos will make you look forward to the mornings. Made with bell peppers, cheese, turkey kielbasa sausage, and cheddar, this protein-packed meal will keep you satisfied all morning long!
In my opinion, there is no better way to start the day than a breakfast burrito. Think of it as an omelet or scrambled eggs nestled into a tortilla. It is both portable and convenient… and totally delicious!
These Freezer Breakfast Burritos are great to make ahead and have on hand for the week. So simple to do and easy to reheat. They are also customizable using whatever cheese or meat you would like, or you could just load up on veggies instead. Also, I have had great results using whole wheat tortillas instead of white flour.
How To Make Freezer Breakfast Burritos
To make, just heat a skillet over medium high heat and cook the onions and bell peppers to soften. Add in the chopped turkey kielbasa or whatever meat you prefer and heat through. Pour in the beaten eggs, cheese, and salt, and cook until no longer runny.
Place 1/8th of the egg mixture (about 1/2 a cup) into the middle of the tortilla. Fold in the sides and then roll into a burrito.
Place the Freezer Breakfast Burritos seam side down into a preheated skillet over medium heat. Cook until lightly brown and turn to brown the other side.
Wrap the burritos in parchment or wax paper and freeze until ready to eat.
Store in an airtight container. When ready to eat, microwave in parchment wrap on high for 90 to 120 seconds. Let stand a minute before eating. Delicious, easy, and portable breakfast. Enjoy!
