Healthy Breakfast Burrito Recipe

red potatoes, cubed

Sugarhouse Maple Breakfast Chicken Sausages

onion

red bell pepper

spinach, chopped

eggs

egg egg

garlic powder

onion powder

Salt + Pepper

tortillas**

Shredded cheese

Salsa and/or hot sauce

cilantro

In a large skillet sprayed with nonstick cooking spray, sauté potatoes for about 3-5 minutes and until they are softening. Chop chicken sausage and add it with onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Continue to cook for a minute or two and then add in spinach. Once veggies are tender and sausage is browned, add eggs, egg whites and seasonings.

Fill tortillas evenly with 1/4 of the egg mixture and any other toppings you prefer. Fold in the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll, tucking in the edges as you go. (See video in this post for a visual.)

Spray cleaned skillet with cooking spray and set the heat to medium. When the skillet is hot, add the burritos, seam side down. Cook, covered, until the bottom of the burritos are golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the burritos over and continue cooking, covered, until golden, a few minutes more. Serve warm.

Make Ahead: The burritos may be assembled a few hours ahead of time, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerated, before cooking. To reheat leftover burritos, wrap in foil and warm in a 350°F oven for about 15 minutes. (They won't be as crisp as they are fresh out of the pan, but they reheat well.)

tsp dark chili powder

tsp garlic salt salt

tsp black pepper

tsp cumin

sour cream

cheddar cheese

baby spinach leaves (additional as needed)

onions

10 inch flour tortillas (warmed)

vegetable oil

To make the filling: Melt 2 tablespoons butter in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add potatoes and bell pepper. Cook over medium heat 2-3 minutes or just until beginning to soften.

To the skillet add sausage, chili powder, garlic salt, onion powder, black pepper and cumin. Mix well to combine. Cook over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes or until pork is no longer pink. Drain, excess fat from skillet. Remove to a plate.

To make the eggs: In a small bowl, whisk eggs and sour cream together until fully combined. Add reserved 1 teaspoon butter to skillet. Add egg mixture; cooking over medium heat, gently lifting portions with spatula so uncooked portion flows underneath. Cook for 2-3 minutes or just until eggs are set.

To assemble: Divide 3/4 cup of cheddar cheese sprinkling down the center of each of the 4 tortillas then arrange ¼ cup spinach leaves over cheese. Spoon ¼ of hash brown-sausage mixture over spinach. Next, add ¼ scrambled eggs. Top with green onions sprinkling each with remaining cheese.

Fold edges over filling, overlapping slightly. Roll up tortilla from bottom to enclose filling ending seam side down.

Heat vegetable oil in a clean skillet.  Brown tortillas over medium-high heat just until lightly golden on both sides, turn for even browning. (Start seam side down.)

Serve immediately with salsa and sour cream, if desired.
