Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Melt the butter and add the diced red bell pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the bell pepper. Stir continuously, cooking the eggs until they are just softly scrambled. Remove from heat and set aside.
Spread a thin layer of cream cheese onto each flour tortilla. Evenly distribute the flaked salmon, scrambled eggs, green onions, and 1.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese across the tortillas.
Roll each tortilla into a burrito and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
Pour the salsa evenly over the burritos, then sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Allow the bake to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra green onions or a dollop of sour cream if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
