  • 1/2 lb 8 medium button mushrooms, thinly sliced - optional
  • 1 Tbsp unsalted Butter
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sourcream divided (2 Tbsp each for eggs and 1 Tbsp each tortilla).
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt or to your taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper or to your taste.

  • 4 oz mozzarella cheese (1 cup shredded)

Method
 

  1. How to make Breakfast Burrito filling
  2. Mix 6 eggs in a medium bowl with 2 Tbsp of sour cream. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Mix in the ham strips and place in a bowl.
  3. Place 1 Tbsp of oil in a large skillet and heat on medium heat. Stir in the sliced mushrooms. Sauté until golden (5 minutes), turning occasionally. Season with salt and pepper, then take out the mushrooms.
  4. Heat 1 Tbsp butter in a skillet. Add egg mixture to the skillet. Stir/scramble the eggs until they are cooked through (about 3 minutes). Set aside.
  5. Assembling Breakfast Burritos:
  6. Spread 1 Tbsp of sour cream on the tortilla's center. Top it with 1/6 of the cooked eggs and shredded mozzarella cheese. If desired, add 1-2 Tbsp chopped tomatoes. Do not over-stuff them as they will become difficult to roll.
  7. Roll the burrito top-to-bottom. Wrap the top flap tightly over the filling. Fold the edges in tight and seal the seam with the bottom flap. Continue with the remaining burritos.
  8. To Heat Burritos:
  9. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Place the thawed or fresh burritos on a large skillet over medium heat. Fold them in half and cook on both sides for 2 minutes. Add more oil if necessary.
