Breakfast Burrito with Turkey Bacon and Egg

If you’re looking for a protein-packed breakfast burrito that’s also filled with veggies and healthy fats, you’re at the right place. This burrito has turkey bacon, eggs, veggies, cheese and avocado. It also has a crispy exterior so there’s a perfect crisp to EACH bite!

When I wake up in the morning, I look forward to breakfast. There’s just something about the first meal of the day that makes me SO excited. I’ve been in a phase of craving breakfast burritos for the past two weeks and I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon!

Breakfast burritos are ideal because I add in whatever ingredients I have at home. I always have eggs at home (Vital Farms hello!) so I scramble it with veggies like bell peppers, spinach, onion, mushroom and broccoli to add into my burritos. I also add in some other protein like turkey bacon or breakfast sausage.

Breakfast Burrito Ingredients:

• Burrito Sized Tortilla – Instead of regular tortilla wraps, make sure it’s big enough to wrap a burrito! Ones for burritos will be labeled specially “burrito sized”. I like the brand 365 Whole Foods and La Fe Tortilleria.
• Avocado or Olive Oil – These are the two oils I usually use for cooking savory foods. Avocado is great for high heat!
• Veggies – I added spinach and red bell pepper into this burrito but you can sub it for other veggies like onions, mushroom or broccoli!
• Eggs – This is always a must in my breakfast burritos. I’m a HUGE egg fan and I think it’s an important component. Eggs are also a complete protein and a great addition to my diet!
• Turkey Bacon – I used sugar-free nitrate free turkey bacon instead of pork bacon. It’s just a health conscious decision. I try to stray away from eating too much saturated fats for my cholesterol!
• Avocado – This makes all burritos and tacos taste better. Also, why not add in some healthy fats?
• Shredded Cheese – This is optional and since the burrito is pretty packed, I don’t always add in cheese. I’ll usually sprinkle just a little because I roll it up. I like the brands Violife Foods or Miyokos Creamery.

I recently went to Erewhon and was inspired to create a copycat recipe. That started my burrito cravings and instead of spending $17 on each burrito, I bought all the ingredients I needed to make them at home. My husband has been LOVING them. I switch out the ingredients inside so we aren’t eating the same exact thing every morning.
