Breakfast Burrito Variations

Breakfast burritos are incredibly versatile and the ingredient combinations are endless. Try these variations on our protein breakfast burritos:

Veggies: For veggie-packed burritos, add another pepper (bell, poblano, or jalapeño), some fresh spinach or arugula, mushrooms, or any other leftover veggies you have on hand.

Bacon: Replace the bacon with cooked breakfast sausage, or skip the meat altogether.

Cheese: Use your favorite type of shredded cheese. Any kind works!

Tortillas: Choose any tortilla or wrap that won’t break when folded. For true breakfast sandwiches, try our recipe for freezer breakfast sandwiches .

Absolutely! For 8 breakfast burritos, simply double all of the ingredients. Just make sure the pan you use is big enough to cook 16 eggs.

Use non-dairy milk and vegan cheese (or omit the cheese completely).

Freezing Breakfast Burritos

Enjoy these breakfast burritos straight off the stove or freeze them for later (you could even make a double batch!). To freeze, wrap each burrito in plastic wrap and squeeze out as much air as possible. Wrap again with a layer of foil. Label each individually wrapped burrito and freeze for up to 3 months.

To Reheat

  • From Frozen: Unwrap the frozen burrito and place it on a plate in the microwave. Use the defrost setting and cook for 2-3 minutes, flipping every minute. Then, microwave on high for 60-90 seconds, or until hot.
  • From Thawed: Transfer the breakfast burrito from the freezer to the refrigerator the night before. When ready to warm, unwrap the frozen burrito, place it on a plate, and microwave on high for 60-90 seconds, or until hot.
