  • 1/4 cup milk Any kind — skim, 2%, or a plant milk work
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup cooked sausage, crumbled Breakfast sausage or turkey sausage
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese Swappable for pepper jack or a Mexican blend for a spicier bite

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl until smooth and lightly frothy.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture.
  3. Stir gently and continuously until soft curds form and the eggs are just set — don’t overcook.
  4. Add the cooked sausage and crumbled bacon to the eggs. Stir to distribute evenly.
  5. Sprinkle in the shredded cheddar and stir until it melts into the warm eggs.
Assembly

Notes

These burritos are freezer-friendly and can be reheated easily. Cooked sausage and bacon can be prepped in advance to speed up assembly in the mornings.
