When it comes to breakfast, I’m a burrito girl through and through. There’s just something about wrapping up all your favorite ingredients in a warm tortilla that feels so satisfying—especially when it’s homemade. And if you’ve never had a short rib breakfast burrito, get ready to meet your new obsession.

Ingredients
Braised short ribshredded (I used leftovers. I have short rib recipes on my blog)
2–3 eggs
A handful of fresh spinach
1/2avocadosliced or mashed
Shredded cheesecheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend
1burrito-sized tortilla
Olive oil or butterfor crisping
Instructions
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add your cooked short rib and let it warm through.
Crack in the eggs directly into the pan with the short rib and toss in a handful of spinach. Scramble everything together until the eggs are just set and spinach is wilted.
On a large tortilla, layer your short rib + egg mixture, add fresh avocado and a generous handful of shredded cheese.
Roll it up tightly into a burrito.
Wipe the skillet clean if needed, then add a bit of olive oil or butter. Place the burrito seam-side down and cook over medium heat until both sides are crispy and golden brown.
