Spicy Egg Burritos Recipes

SPICY BREAKFAST BURRITOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Place tortillas in a large covered casserole dish or wrap lightly in aluminum foil and warm in the oven.
• In a large mixing bowl, lightly beat together eggs, jalapeno, and water.
• Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
• Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Cook eggs, stirring, until done.
• Tp assemble, spread a quarter of the scrambled eggs across center of tortilla and top with a quarter of the cheese, beans, scallions, cilantro, salsa, and sour cream. Add additional salsa and sour cream if desired.
• Fold the tortilla envelope style: bring one side of the tortilla just over edge of filling, then roll it up to form a tight bundle. Repeat with remaining tortillas and fillings. Serve burritos with additional salsa and sour cream.

SPICY BREAKFAST BURRITOS WITH CHEESE

Steps:

• Wrap the flour tortillas in paper towels and microwave them for 1 minute to make them pliable. Set them aside.
• Crumble the sausage finely into a large skillet over a medium heat and cook until brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Add the butter to a large nonstick skillet over a medium heat. Beat the eggs in a large bowl with the salt and pepper. Stir in the hot sauce, jalapenos and a splash of jalapeno juice. When the butter has melted, turn the heat to low and pour in the eggs, then add the sausage. Slowly cook the mixture, using a wooden spatula to push it around the skillet, until the eggs are totally cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Place approximately 1/2 cup of the egg and sausage mixture into a warm tortilla, then add a pinch of cheese and roll up (do not tuck in the ends). Wrap in a foil square and keep warm until ready to serve. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Serve with more hot sauce, jalapenos and salsa.

TERRI'S SPICY EGG BURRITOS

Steps:

• Combine sausage, eggs, salsa and cheese.
• Pour into 9x13 pan.
• Bake at 350 until eggs are set, about 20 minutes.
• Cut into 12 pieces of 2x4 inches.
• Heat wraps a few at a time by wrapping in paper towel and zapping in the microwave about 20 seconds. This makes them flexible and less likely to tear. Don't heat them all at once unless you're faster than me, because they cool off as they wait.
• Place one piece of egg on the lower edge of each wrap. Fold in the sides and roll up. Wrap in plastic wrap.
• At this point, burritos may be kept in the fridge up to one week, or frozen on baking sheet [when solid, put in ziploc bag together] and kept up to 3 months.
• To serve, remove plastic wrap and wrap loosely in paper towel. Zap on high in microwave about 1 minute if using from fridge, or about 2 minutes if frozen.
• Note -- you can use the egg mixture to make "McMuffins" also. Cut into squares instead of rectangles. To use, heat in microwave the same as for burritos, whether thawed or frozen, and serve on a toasted and buttered English muffin. My daughter prefers them this way, so I usually make half the pan for her and half as burritos for my son.

SPICY CHORIZO BREAKFAST BURRITOS

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir chorizo in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• While the chorizo is cooking, spray a large skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno; cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Beat eggs, milk, and salt together in a large bowl. Pour into the skillet with the vegetables and cook until eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Mix in chorizo and remove from the heat.
• Lay warmed tortillas flat and spoon chorizo-egg mixture into the middle. Add cheese and roll into a burrito.
