Vegetarian Breakfast Burrito Recipe

Ingredients:

• For the Filling:
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• ½ cup diced red bell pepper
• ¼ cup diced onion
• 2 small potatoes, peeled and diced (or use tater tots)
• 6 large eggs (or substitute with tofu for a vegan option)
• ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• For the Tortillas:
• 4 large flour tortillas (or gluten-free tortillas)
• Optional Toppings:
• Avocado slices
• Salsa or hot sauce
• Fresh cilantro or parsley

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Potatoes:

• In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender. If using tater tots, cook them according to package instructions.

1. Sauté Vegetables:

• Once the potatoes are cooked, add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for an additional 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are soft.

1. Scramble the Eggs:

• In a bowl, whisk together the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the cooked vegetables and potatoes. Stir gently to scramble until the eggs are fully cooked.

1. Assemble the Burritos:

• Warm each tortilla in a microwave for about 20 seconds to make them pliable.
• Place a generous scoop of the egg and vegetable mixture in the center of each tortilla.
• Sprinkle shredded cheese on top of the filling.
• Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.

1. Toast the Burritos:

• Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place each burrito seam-side down in the skillet.
• Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

1. Serve:

• Slice the burritos in half and serve warm with avocado slices, salsa, or fresh herbs as desired.

Tips:

• Make it Vegan: Substitute eggs with scrambled tofu seasoned with turmeric, salt, and pepper for color and flavor.
• Add Greens: Incorporate spinach or kale into the filling for added nutrition.
• Meal Prep: These burritos can be made ahead of time and frozen. Just reheat in a microwave or skillet when ready to eat.
