Make Ahead Breakfast Burritos

Char both sides of the tortillas on a hot griddle or over the open flame. Keep warmed in the oven if eating right away. This will help the tortillas become more pliable and also improves the taste.

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with salt. Mix in scallions and bell pepper.

Discard the bacon grease leaving 1 teaspoon then add the eggs, let them set on the bottom then stir a few times to cook through, set aside.

On a clean work surface, divide a generous 1/2 cup of the egg mixture onto the bottom third of the tortilla. Top each with a slice of bacon and 2 tablespoons cheese. Roll from the bottom, folding the left and right corners in toward the center and continue and roll into a tight cylinder. Set aside, seam-side down, and repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

If eating right away, heat a skillet over medium heat. When hot, spray the skillet with oil and add the burritos, seam-side down. Cook, covered, until the bottoms of the burritos are golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Serve with hot sauce or salsa, if desired.

HOW TO FREEZE FOR MEAL PREP: (1) Place the foil on a work surface vertically, place the rolled burrito in the center bottom third, roll partially, folding the sides of the foil over the burritos, then roll it up. (2) Transfer to a freezer bag to prevent freezer burn. (3) Use a sharpie to label it with the name, date and cook time/temperature to reheat.

HOW TO HEAT FROZEN BURRITOS: (1) To reheat, thawed overnight in the refrigerator: Transfer burrito to the refrigerator the night before. Bake in foil, in a preheated oven 425°F for 20 minutes, turning halfway. Unwrap foil and bake uncovered 5 minutes. Optional, you can also broil 2 to 3 minutes at the end to toast. (2) To reheat direct from freezer to oven: Bake in a preheated oven 425°F for 45 minutes turning halfway. Unwrap foil and bake uncovered 5 minutes. Optional, you can also broil 2 to 3 minutes at the end to toast. Let stand 2 minutes before eating. (3) To reheat direct from freezer to microwave: Remove the burrito from the foil and place on a microwave safe dish, cover with a paper towel and microwave 1 minute. Turn then cook an additional 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Let stand 2 minutes before eating. Optional, brown on a skillet 2 minutes on each side to toast, or broil 2 to 3 minutes. (4)To reheat in air fryer, thawed overnight in the refrigerator: Transfer burrito to the refrigerator the night before. Unwrap and discard foil, spritz with a little oil and air fry in a preheated air fryer 400°F for 8 to 9 minutes, turning halfway until heated through in the center.
