Ingredients

  • 3 medium Yukon potatoes chopped into 1 inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 16 oz. sround breakfast sausage turkey or pork
  • 10 large eggs beaten
  • ½ cup salsa
  • ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 2 cups spinach leaves

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set it aside while prepping the potatoes.
  2. Wash potatoes and pat dry. Then chop the into one inch pieces. Place them chopped pieces on a foil lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until they are fork tender.
  3. While the potatoes are baking, cook the breakfast sausage in a large skillet until no longer pink and cooked through. About 7-8 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel. In the same skillet (or a new one if you prefer) cook the eggs by scrambling them, seasoned with salt and pepper.
  4. Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly (1-2 minutes).
  5. Once the potatoes have cooled it is time to assemble your burritos. On a tortilla place spoonful potato pieces, a spoonful eggs and sausage and a tiny bundle of spinach. Next, add in the desired amount of cheese and salsa. (Note: If you are planning to freeze these breakfast burritos I recommend skipping the salsa as it can cause the burrito to become soggy when reheating.)
  6. To fold your burrito take in the 2 shortest sides holding them down with both hands. Then using your thumbs lift the open side over and begin rolling a tight roll.
  7. Place seam side down in the skillet over medium heat for one to two minutes.
