  • 3 tablespoons oil, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lb pork breakfast sausage
  • 8 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 8 large flour tortillas 12 inch

Method
 

  1. Peel and cut 2 large potatoes into ½-inch cubes; boil 5 minutes, drain, and pat dry.

  3. Cook the sausage in the skillet until crumbled and 160°F, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and drain excess fat.
  4. Add the remaining tablespoon oil and sauté pepper and onion for 5-7 minutes until tender; transfer to a bowl.
  5. Scramble 8 eggs with 2 tablespoons milk over medium-low heat until set and 160°F. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Warm 8 large 12-inch flour tortillas in a dry skillet until pliable.
  7. Warm the drained beans. Set out the eggs, potatoes, meat, peppers, onions, cheese, salsa and optional toppings.
  8. Place a warm tortilla on a flat surface; add shredded cheese in center to hold filling.
  9. Add desired fillings in center without overfilling.
  10. Fold sides in; roll tightly from bottom, keeping filling tucked in.
  11. Optional: toast burrito seam-side down in a skillet 1-2 minutes for extra crispiness.
