Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 flour tortillas (10-inch)
- 0.5 cup salsa
- 4 slices or links cooked bacon or sausage (optional)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk together with the milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs are softly scrambled and just set. Remove the eggs from the heat.
Warm the flour tortillas by placing them in a dry skillet over low heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or microwave them for 15-20 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel.
Assemble the burritos: Place a warm tortilla on a flat surface, add a quarter of the scrambled eggs, a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese, a spoonful of salsa, and optional toppings such as bacon, sausage, or cilantro.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling ingredients.
Serve the egg burritos warm. Optionally, wrap them in foil if you plan to take them on the go or enjoy later.
