Sausage and Egg Breakfast Burritos

By Denise Pare-Watson

It is always a good idea to have a backup of breakfast items that you can quickly heat up as you head out the door.  These Sausage and Egg Breakfast Burritos are easy to make little packets to help make your morning routine easier.  It will take only a few minutes to make several of these breakfast burritos and can be stored in individual baggies and refrigerated or frozen to have on hand for breakfasts.

Sausage and Egg Breakfast Burritos

CHEF TALK:  The package of flour tortillas that I buy has 8 tortillas (labelled medium size and measuring between 6 – 7 inches in diameter).  The recipe below will make 8 breakfast burritos.  Follow the assembly of the burritos in the step-by-step photographs following the recipe.

Yield:  8 small breakfast burritos

INGREDIENTS:

For the Scrambled Eggs:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk or light cream (about 60 ml)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black Pepper 
  • 1 Tablespoon finely chopped green onion, optional
    ___________

For Breakfast Burrito Assembly:

  • 8 whole wheat or white flour tortillas (6 – 7 inch), room temperature (leave them in their storage bag to prevent drying out)
  • 8 breakfast sausage, cooked (See CHEF TIP below)
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese (or as needed)
  • Mayonnaise, as required

METHOD:

  1. For the Scrambled Eggs:  In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt and pepper (green onion, if using).
  2. Preheat a medium-size frying pan over medium-high heat.  Add a drop of oil or butter (or both).
  3. Pour in the egg mixture and immediately reduce the heat to medium-low. Using a spatula, gently move it across the bottom and sides of frying pan to form large, soft curds.
  4. The eggs are done when they are softly set and fluffy and there is no uncooked liquid remaining in the frying pan.  The scrambled eggs will be set but not dry. This will only take a few minutes.  Remove from the heat to cool slightly in the pan while you get the rest of the ingredients ready.
  5. For Assembly of the Breakfast Burritos:  Place the flour tortillas in a single layer on a cutting board or countertop with the rest of the ingredients close at hand to begin assembly of the burritos.  (Follow the step by step photos below the recipe).   CHEF TIP:  Tortillas will dry out easily so to prevent this when constructing, use a damp cloth to cover the tortillas to maintain freshness.
  6. Drizzle a little mayonnaise onto the middle of each tortilla.
  7. On each flour tortilla, place the following ingredients as shown in the photograph:  one scoop of scrambled eggs; one cooked sausage; 1 – 2 Tablespoons of shredded Cheddar cheese.
  8. Bring one edge of the tortilla over the ingredients; then each side of the tortilla over the first fold.  Now, flip the package over the last edge so that the folds are now underneath the burrito.   Repeat with the remaining Breakfast Burritos.  CHEF TIP:  Smear a little mayonnaise under the last fold of the tortilla to help adhere the tortilla edges together.
  9. Preheat a frying pan over low to medium heat.  Place a little oil or butter (or both) in the frying pan and place the burritos fold side down into the frying pan.  Brown slowly to a golden brown, flip the burrito over and brown on the other side.  Cool for a few minutes before cutting in half to serve.
  10. TO SERVE:  Serve immediately or refrigerate and reheat when required.  For longer storage, freeze the breakfast burritos in small sealing bags and rewarm them in the microwave.

CHEF TIP:  For an easy way to cook the sausage, place the amount required (or bulk amounts) on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast at 350°F, periodically shifting the sausage to ensure a golden colour all around (approximately 20 minutes).  Use immediately or refrigerate to reheat as needed.  For longer storage, freeze the pre-cooked sausage in airtight containers.

A Frilly Frittata – An Italian Omelette

By Denise Pare-Watson

Do you love eggs?  Do you love them for breakfast, brunch or dinner?  Me, too!  How about a recipe that can be used for all three meals? I think you are going to like this one.  It is a delicious take on a frittata,  which in essence is an Italian omelette. What it really could be described as is an easy way to make an omelette for a crowd.  I have a trick up my sleeve to share with you that makes it easy to do.

I have made this Frittata for Mother’s Day Brunch,  Father’s Day Breakfast, as well as when we have a houseful of guests for the weekend.  You will find that the art of making a frittata is a very good skill to master.
