Time 54m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (12 ounce) package bacon
10 large eggs
3 tablespoons milk
¼ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 cups frozen hash brown potatoes with peppers and onion (such as Ore-Ida® Potatoes O'Brien®)
½ teaspoon garlic salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
10 large flour tortillas
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup salsa, or to taste

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.

Tips:

  • Prep Ahead: Save time in the morning by prepping your burritos the night before. Simply assemble the burritos and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. In the morning, just pop them in the slow cooker and turn it on.
  • Choose Your Fillings Wisely: The possibilities are endless when it comes to fillings for your breakfast burritos. Some popular options include eggs, cheese, bacon, sausage, potatoes, and vegetables. Get creative and experiment with different combinations to find your favorites.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Slow Cooker: Make sure to leave enough space between the burritos in the slow cooker so that they can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the slow cooker, the burritos will not cook properly.
  • Use Low Heat: When cooking your breakfast burritos in the slow cooker, use the low heat setting. This will help to prevent the burritos from drying out.
  • Keep an Eye on the Burritos: Check on the burritos periodically to make sure that they are cooking properly. If the burritos start to dry out, you can add a little bit of water or broth to the slow cooker.
