Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a large non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the whisked eggs and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until they are scrambled and fully cooked (about 5-7 minutes).
- While the eggs are cooking, warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat until they are pliable and slightly toasted (about 1-2 minutes each side).
- Once the eggs are ready, lay the warm tortillas flat on a clean surface. Divide the scrambled eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, and cooked country potatoes evenly among the tortillas.
- Roll up each tortilla tightly into a burrito, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the filling.
- Serve the breakfast burritos warm with a generous side of salsa for dipping. Enjoy!
Tips
- For extra flavor, consider adding diced bell peppers or onions to the scrambled eggs.
- Feel free to swap out cheddar cheese for your favorite cheese, such as pepper jack for a spicy kick.
- You can prep the country potatoes ahead of time, making this breakfast burrito quick to assemble in the morning.
