Bacon and Egg Breakfast Burrito
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 slices of bacon
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 large flour tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon of butter
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Crumble the bacon and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Scramble the eggs until they are just set.
- Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave for 10 seconds to make them pliable.
- Divide the scrambled eggs between the two tortillas, then sprinkle the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese on top of the eggs.
- Fold the sides of the tortillas over the filling, then roll them up tightly to form burritos.
- If desired, heat a clean skillet over medium heat and place the burritos seam-side down to crisp them up for 1-2 minutes on each side.
- Serve the bacon and egg breakfast burritos immediately, or wrap them in foil to keep warm for on-the-go enjoyment.
