📖 Instructions

1. First, prepare the filling: In a large skillet, brown the breakfast sausage over medium heat. Use a spatula to break it up into smaller pieces as it cooks. Once cooked through, remove from the skillet and set aside.
2. Next, scramble the eggs: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set but still slightly moist. Make sure you don't overcook them!
3. Time for the veggies: In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion and bell pepper until they are tender and slightly caramelized. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes. The aroma alone is worth the effort!
4. Warm the tortillas: Stack the tortillas and wrap them in a damp paper towel. Microwave for 30-45 seconds, or until they are warm and pliable. This step is crucial to prevent the tortillas from cracking when you roll them.
5. Assemble the burritos: Lay a warm tortilla flat on a clean surface. Add a scoop of scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, sautéed veggies, shredded cheese, and a spoonful of your favorite salsa to the center of the tortilla. Don't overfill them or they will be hard to roll!
6. Roll the burritos: Fold in the sides of the tortilla towards the center, then tightly roll the burrito from the bottom up. Try to keep everything snug and secure as you roll.
7. Wrap for freezing: Wrap each burrito individually in plastic wrap, ensuring it's tightly sealed to prevent freezer burn. Then, wrap each plastic-wrapped burrito in aluminum foil for extra protection. You can also use freezer bags instead of foil.
8. Freeze the burritos: Place the wrapped burritos in the freezer. They can be stored for up to 2-3 months. I like to label them with the date so I know when I made them.
9. Reheat and enjoy: When you're ready to enjoy a burrito, remove it from the freezer and unwrap it. Microwave for 2-3 minutes, or until heated through. You can also bake them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 20-25 minutes for a crispier tortilla. Be cautious the insides are not still frozen!
