Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 8 slices of bacon
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup salsa (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook 8 slices of bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Crumble the bacon and set aside.
- In a bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set but still moist. Remove from heat and stir in the crumbled bacon and 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
- Warm 4 large flour tortillas in the microwave for 20 seconds, or in a dry skillet for 10 seconds on each side.
- Divide the egg and bacon mixture evenly among the tortillas. Add a spoonful of salsa and a sprinkle of chopped fresh cilantro, if desired.
- Fold in the sides of each tortilla and then roll up tightly to enclose the filling.
- Serve immediately, or wrap each burrito in foil and keep warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
