Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Additional Time: 5 minutes

Total Time: 50 minutes

Servings: 4 burritos

Ingredients:

• 4 medium-sized potatoes, diced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 onion, diced
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 6 large eggs, beaten
• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup crumbled cooked bacon (optional)
• 4 large whole-wheat tortillas
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Steps to Cook:

1. Prepare the Potatoes: a. Wash and peel the potatoes, if desired. b. Dice the potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. c. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. d. Add the diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and lightly browned, about 15-20 minutes.

2. Cook the Vegetables: a. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the skillet with the cooked potatoes. b. Sauté the vegetables until they are softened and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. c. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant.

3. Prepare the Eggs: a. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined. b. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet with the potatoes and vegetables. c. Gently scramble the eggs, stirring frequently, until they are cooked through but still soft, about 3-5 minutes.

4. Assemble the Burritos: a. Lay the whole-wheat tortillas on a clean surface. b. Divide the egg and vegetable mixture evenly among the tortillas, placing it in the center. c. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled cooked bacon (if using) over the egg mixture. d. Fold the bottom of the tortilla up, then fold in the sides and continue rolling tightly to create the burrito.

5. Serve and Enjoy: a. Serve the breakfast burritos immediately, or wrap them in foil or parchment paper to enjoy later. b. If desired, you can reheat the burritos in the microwave or oven before serving.

Cook’s Note:

• For a spicier version, you can add diced jalapeño or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the egg mixture.
• Feel free to customize the fillings by adding other vegetables, such as spinach, mushrooms, or diced tomatoes.
• To make this recipe vegetarian, omit the bacon and use vegetarian-friendly cheese.
• These burritos can be prepared in advance and frozen for a quick and easy breakfast on the go. Reheat in the microwave or oven before serving.
