• Servings:16
• Easy

Ingredients

• 12 eggs
• 1/2 lb breakfast sausage
• 1 cup salsa
• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 16 tortillas

• Step 1

  Spray non-stick cooking spray in a large skillet. On medium heat, scramble the eggs and add salt and pepper to taste.

  

• Step 2

  In another pan, cook the breakfast sausage until it's done.

  

• Step 3

  Once the sausage is cooked, take a spoon and add the meat to the eggs (leave behind the sausage grease) and also add the salsa and cheese. Heat until the cheese is melted.

  

• Step 4

  Once the cheese has melted, place the ingredients in a bowl and put them in the fridge for 30 mins or until they have completely cooled off.

  

• Step 5

  Next, lay out all 16 of your tortillas and begin to divide the ingredients evenly between them.
  
  #SpoonTip: Start with a 1/4 cup each and then go from there.

  

• Step 6

  Once all your tortillas are filled, wrap them up burrito-style and then wrap them individually in plastic wrap.

  

• Step 7

  Place your 16 burritos in a gallon-sized freezer bag and label the outside with what they are and how to reheat them so you never forget.

  

• Step 8

  Reheating instructions: unwrap your individual burrito from the plastic wrap and place a wet paper towel around it. Then place it in the microwave for 2-2.5 minutes or until it's heated.
  
  #SpoonTip: After taking it out of the microwave, wrap it in foil to keep it warmer for longer.
