Rise and Shine Breakfast Burritos

This delicious, filling breakfast recipe for Rise and Shine Breakfast Burritos can be enjoyed around the table at home or wrapped and enjoyed on the go.

Now that school is about to start back up, I like to make sure I have some good breakfast ideas to offer, other than cold cereal.  Breakfast burritos provide a ton of protein and staying power, perfect before school or work.

We had out of town family come stay with us last weekend, and I made these Egg and Bean Breakfast Burritos for everyone.

Seriously, one of the easiest things to make and you can customize to everyone’s liking!  I wrapped them in foil and everyone grabbed one, or two as they got up!

You can also make a large batch and freeze, then during the morning rush trying to find last nights homework, you just pull one out of the freezer and microwave for a few minutes and you’ve got breakfast to go!!  Wrap each one in plastic wrap, and remember to mark the outside if the ingredients inside differ.

I usually make breakfast burritos with whatever I have on hand.  This week we used seasoned black beans, with a few veggies and cheese.

I simply heated the black beans in a small saucepan, while I chopped some tomato, mushrooms and red peppers (green pepper would have been more colorful, but I only had red).

Next, I scrambled a few eggs in my cast iron skillet, then added the beans and veggies; heated the tortillas, then topped the tortillas with the egg mixture and sprinkled with a little cheese, rolled and done!  How simple is that?!

If you are making them for a crowd, wrap them in aluminum foil so they stay warm for your guests!
