Description

A hearty breakfast burrito filled with sausage, eggs, and crispy potatoes, perfect for starting the day.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz ground pork sausage
  • ½ ring Kielbasa sausage (7 oz), diced
  • 2 cups frozen diced hash brown potatoes
  • ½ red bell pepper, diced
  • ½ green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 1 medium jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced
  • 4 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • ½ tsp seasoned salt
  • ⅛ tsp black pepper
  • ⅛ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp cowboy ranch seasoning (optional)
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil for frying
  • Sour cream for serving
  • Salsa for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the ground pork sausage. Cook for 6-7 minutes, breaking it up until no longer pink. Add the diced kielbasa and cook for another 2-4 minutes until browned. Transfer meat to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  2. In the same skillet, add the frozen hash browns and toss to coat. Cook for 5-7 minutes until crispy and almost cooked through.
  3. Stir in the diced red and green bell peppers, onion, and jalapeño along with the seasoned salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  4. Beat the eggs and mix in the cowboy ranch seasoning if using. Melt the butter in the same skillet over medium heat, then pour in the eggs. Cook until just set and creamy.
  5. Heat tortillas in the microwave or by dry skillet to soften.
  6. Lay out the tortillas and divide fillings: ¼ cup each of cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese, ½ cup of meat mixture, ¼ cup scrambled eggs, and ¾ cup potato-vegetable mixture on each tortilla.
  7. Fold sides of the tortilla toward the center, then fold up the bottom edge and roll tightly from bottom to top.
  8. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over low heat. Place burritos seam-side down and fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Serve hot with sour cream and salsa!
