Steps:
- Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels and crumble into bits. Keep skillet warm.
- Whisk eggs, milk, and salt together in a bowl. Pour into the hot skillet. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
- Heat oil in same skillet over medium-high heat. Add frozen potatoes, garlic salt, and pepper. Fry until browned on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until other side is browned, 4 to 5 minutes more. Let cool.
- Cut 10 squares of aluminum foil slightly larger than the tortillas. Lay 1 tortilla on each square; evenly distribute Cheddar cheese on top. Add eggs, bacon, salsa, and potatoes to each tortilla, in that order. Tightly roll the burritos, tucking tops and bottoms in first.
- Wrap aluminum foil tightly around each burrito, covering it completely. Place in resealable plastic bags in a single layer. Remove as much air as possible from the bags before sealing. Store in the freezer until ready to reheat.
- Reheat by removing the aluminum foil, placing the burrito on a microwave-safe plate, and topping it with a paper towel. Heat in the microwave until evenly warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes.

- In a non stick skillet over low heat, add butter or some bacon grease to the pan. Crack eggs, whisk them well, add a splash of milk if you like, then pour into the pan. There should be no sizzling and it will look like the eggs are not cooking, but gently move the eggs with a spatula around the pan every 30 seconds or so. Turn off the heat right before the eggs are fully cooked and season with salt and pepper. Remove cooked eggs from pan and set aside.
- Warm flour tortillas in the microwave to make them more pliable, about 20-30 seconds. Layer scrambled eggs, cheese, and bacon slices in tortilla and wrap tightly. If eating now, add extra condiments like salsa, hot sauce, or sliced avocado. Toast burrito on a hot oiled skillet to crisp it up.
- To Freeze Burritos- Allow eggs and bacon to cool then assemble burritos. Wrap each burrito tightly with plastic wrap or foil. Then place in a large zip top bag or freezer container. Write the name and date and store up to 3 months in the freezer.To reheat- remove burrito from plastic or foil, and place on a microwave safe plate and heat for 1-2 minutes. Add any extra fresh toppings and toast burrito on a hot oiled skillet to crisp it up.

Since she likes things pretty mild, I came up with these tasty breakfast burritos. They are so easy. She just heats one in the microwave and takes it with her to the bus stop.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Arrange 8 slices bacon in a single layer on a wire rack set inside a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake until browned and crisp, 18-25 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Whisk 10 large eggs in a medium bowl until smooth. Melt 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Pour eggs into pan and immediately start pushing them across the bottom with a heatproof rubber spatula. Cook, scraping bottom and sides, until large curds form but mixture is still a little runny, about 2 minutes. Scatter 1 cup coarsely grated Oaxaca or Chihuahua cheese over and cook, folding into eggs, until cheese is melted and eggs are cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Arrange 4 Homemade Flour Tortillas, warmed, on a surface and divide ¾ cup Creamy Black Beans, warmed, among tortillas, spreading down center of each. Top with eggs and 2 cups crushed tostadas or tortilla chips, dividing evenly, followed by bacon and more cheese (if desired). Fold one side of tortilla up and over filling, then roll up to enclose. If not eating immediately, wrap in foil to keep warm. Store at room temperature up to 1 hour. Do ahead: Burritos can be made 6 hours ahead; chill. Unwrap and reheat in a cast-iron skillet over medium-low to medium 1-2 minutes on each side.
