Ingredients

For the Burritos:
-
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
- 2 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 strips turkey bacon, cooked and crumbled (or ½ cup cooked breakfast sausage)
- ¼ cup diced bell peppers (any color)
- ¼ cup diced onions
- ½ avocado, sliced (optional)
- 2 tablespoons salsa or hot sauce (optional)
- 2 tablespoons sour cream (optional)
Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Eggs
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.

Step 2: Cook the Vegetables
Heat half the butter or oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add diced peppers and onions, cooking for 2-3 minutes until softened. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 3: Scramble the Eggs
In the same skillet, add the remaining butter. Pour in the egg mixture and let it sit for about 20 seconds. Gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges toward the center. Cook for 2-3 minutes until soft and fluffy, but not dry. Remove from heat.

Step 4: Warm the Tortillas
Place tortillas in a dry skillet for 15-20 seconds on each side, or microwave for 20 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel. This makes them pliable and easier to fold.

Step 5: Assemble the Burritos
Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Down the center of each tortilla, layer the ingredients in this order: scrambled eggs, cooked turkey bacon or sausage, sautéed peppers and onions, shredded cheese, and any optional toppings like avocado, salsa, or sour cream.

Step 6: Fold and Serve
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward (about 2 inches on each side), then roll from the bottom up tightly, keeping the sides tucked in. Place seam-side down on a plate. Optional: Return to the skillet seam-side down for 1-2 minutes to seal and create a golden crust.

Step 7: Enjoy
Slice in half diagonally if desired, and serve immediately with extra salsa or hot sauce on the side.

Notes
Make-Ahead: Prep ingredients the night before or assemble complete burritos and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Freeze wrapped burritos for up to 3 months.
Reheating: Microwave refrigerated burritos for 1-2 minutes. For frozen burritos, microwave on 50% power for 3-4 minutes or bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes.
Substitutions: Use breakfast sausage, or omit meat for vegetarian version. Swap in egg whites, whole wheat tortillas, or add black beans for variations.
Pro Tip: Let scrambled eggs cool slightly before assembling to prevent soggy tortillas. Don’t overfill—leave 2 inches on all sides for proper folding.
