THE BEST BREAKFAST BURRITOS (OAMC OPTION)



The Best Breakfast Burritos (Oamc Option) image

I absolutely love the sausage breakfast burritos that McDonald's sells. This recipe is by no means a copycat, but it was definitely an inspiration for this recipe. I have tweaked it for over a year, and this is the final product. This is a terrific recipe if you're on the go, and it's really easy to throw together. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does!

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h

Yield 8 burritos, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 large eggs
1 lb chorizo sausage (Mexican or Argentinian)
1 tablespoon seasoning salt, divided
1 teaspoon pepper
1 (28 ounce) bag O'Brien potatoes, frozen
1/3 cup vegetable oil or 1/3 cup canola oil
2 cups four-cheese Mexican blend cheese or 2 cups cheddar cheese
hot sauce (I use Goya Salsita Chile de Arbol)
8 burrito-size flour tortillas (I use Mission)

Steps:

  • 1. Crack all 12 eggs into a bowl. Poke each yolk with a fork, add 1/2 teaspoons of the pepper and 1 1/2 tsp.of the salt and beat the eggs thoroughly. Set aside.
  • 2. Add oil to a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the potatoes according to package directions, turning every 5 minutes or so until potatoes start to brown. Add the remaining salt and pepper after 10-14 minutes, about halfway through cooking time.
  • 3. While the potatoes are cooking, remove the chorizo from the casings and thoroughly cook the meat in a large fry pan over medium heat, breaking up the meat as it cooks. If there is a large amount of grease, blot away some, but not all away, with a paper towel.
  • 3. Lower the heat to medium, give the eggs a quick scramble and then add them to the chorizo. Continue cooking the eggs and chorizo until the mixture is on the dry side. Use the spatula to break up the eggs and chorizo into "crumbles.".
  • 4. Add the chorizo and egg mixture to the potatoes and gently fold it into the potatoes.
  • 5. Now set up your burrito station. Place a griddle over medium heat. Place a plate near the griddle. Place your shredded cheese in a bowl near the burrito filling. Uncap your hot sauce.
  • 6. Heat a tortillas for about 10 seconds on each side. Put it on the plate. Use a ladle and scoop out a level amount of the mixture into the lower center of the tortilla. Sprinkle a handful of cheese over the filling and shake some hot sauce on top. Fold in the right and left sides of the burrito and then bring the bottom flap over the mixture and roll it up.
  • 7. Eat it and enjoy! Or nuke it for 20-30 secs. if it isn't hot enough for you.
  • 8. For OAMC option, grab a piece of plastic wrap and wrap the burrito, making sure that the seam is down. Freeze the individual burritos for up to two months.
  • 7. To reheat, remove the plastic wrap, place the burrito on a microwave-safe plate seam side down, and microwave it for about 2 1/2 minutes on high. (I have a 1000 watt microwave and this amount of time seems to work well for me. Make adjustments for your microwave.
  • 8. Allow burrito to cool for 2 minutes before handling and ENJOY!

Categories     Breakfast Burritos

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large sweet potato, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 eggs, lightly beaten
¼ cup milk
1 cup shredded pepper Jack cheese
6 large flour tortillas
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
¾ cup cooked vegan chorizo
½ cup prepared salsa verde
hot sauce or salsa, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spread sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season well with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
  • Roast sweet potatoes until tender and browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Whisk eggs and milk together in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Pour eggs into pan and cook, stirring frequently with a rubber spatula, until they begin to set, about 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle cheese over eggs and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until eggs are no longer runny, 3 minutes more. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
  • Wrap tortillas in a dish cloth and microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until pliable. To assemble each burrito: Spread about ¼ cup sweet potatoes, ⅓ cup scrambled eggs, ¼ cup black beans and 2 tablespoons chorizo in a horizontal line across the middle of the tortilla, leaving about 2 inches on either side. Drizzle with 1 to 2 tablespoons salsa verde. Fold left and right sides over the filling, then tightly roll from the bottom of the tortilla to form a burrito. Tightly wrap in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Repeat with remaining tortillas, and freeze for up to 1 month. Alternatively, refrigerate for up to three days.
  • To serve: Remove burrito from plastic or foil and place on a plate in the microwave. Microwave on high for 4 to 5 minutes, until filling is hot and tortilla is tender. Serve immediately with your choice of hot sauce or salsa. If reheating from the refrigerator, microwave on high for 1 ½ to 2 minutes.

MAKE AHEAD BREAKFAST BURRITOS (OAMC)



Make Ahead Breakfast Burritos (Oamc) image

*All measurements are approximate; adjust according to your preferences. You can also add chopped jalapenos or a can of chopped green chili if you want spicier burritos. Do not heat the wrapped burrito in a plastic bag-the paper towel will molecularly bond with the burrito :) Also do not let the burrito sit for too long once heated as the paper towel will be difficult to remove.

Time 3h

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 lb turkey chorizo
1 (12 ounce) package turkey bacon
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 teaspoons garlic, minced (or to taste)
1 (16 ounce) package o'brien frozen potatoes
8 ounces bell peppers, strips (frozen ones work just fine)
1 cup frozen corn
1 (12 ounce) can black beans, drained
12 eggs
1/8 cup milk
salt & pepper
1 (12 ounce) jar salsa (or to taste)
4 cups shredded cheddar cheese (any type you like, I used cheddar or MoJack blend)
24 wheat flour tortillas (can vary depending on how much filling you put in each)

Steps:

  • Remove chorizo from casing & crumble into frying pan (should resemble hamburger texture when cooked).
  • Cook until done/browned.
  • Remove from pan & set aside.
  • Cook bacon until crisp, set on paper towel to drain excess fat.
  • When cool, crumble bacon & set aside.
  • There should be very little grease left in pan, add enough olive oil to get to about 2 tablespoons
  • Add onions & cook until translucent.
  • Add garlic & potatoes to the onions.
  • Cook until potatoes are to your desired crispness. (It may be necessary to add more oil during cooking, but be careful as too much will make the potatoes soggy.).
  • Mix the pepper strips, corn, and black beans into the potatoes.
  • Heat until they are no longer frozen. Set pan aside.
  • Beat eggs, splash of milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl until mixed well.
  • In non-stick pan, scramble eggs until dry.
  • In a large bowl or one of the pans, whatever will hold everything , combine the potato mixture, chorizo, bacon, and eggs.
  • Prepare a large cookie sheet (but small enough to fit in the freezer), by lining it with waxed paper to prevent the burritos from sticking.
  • Take about 3 soup spoonfuls of mixture and spread along the middle of the tortilla.
  • Take care not to get it too close to the ends.
  • Spoon some salsa along the filling.
  • Top with cheese.
  • Fold one side over & roll.
  • Set on cookie sheet.
  • When the cookie sheet is full, place in freezer until the burritos are frozen (at least 3 hours).
  • Take out of freezer; wrap each burrito in a paper towel.
  • Place wrapped burritos in a zip lock bag in the freezer.
  • To re-heat, place frozen burrito in the microwave (in the paper towel) for 2-3 minutes until hot.
  • Let set for one minute before eating.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Choose the Right Tortillas: Use large, sturdy tortillas that can hold all of your fillings without breaking. Corn or whole-wheat tortillas are good options.
  • Cook the Eggs Thoroughly: Cook the eggs until they are firm and cooked through. This will help prevent them from becoming runny or watery in the burritos.
  • Drain the Vegetables: If you are using fresh vegetables, be sure to drain them thoroughly before adding them to the burritos. This will help prevent the burritos from becoming soggy.
  • Layer the Fillings Evenly: When filling the burritos, be sure to layer the fillings evenly so that each bite has a good mix of all the ingredients.
  • Wrap the Burritos Tightly: Wrap the burritos tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. This will help them stay together and prevent the fillings from falling out.
  • Chill or Freeze the Burritos: You can chill the burritos in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze them for up to 3 months.
  • Reheat the Burritos: To reheat the burritos, simply microwave them on high for 1-2 minutes, or until they are heated through.

Conclusion:

Make-ahead breakfast burritos are a delicious and convenient way to start your day. They are easy to make, can be customized to your liking, and can be reheated quickly in the microwave. With a little planning, you can have a healthy and satisfying breakfast ready to go in no time.
