Loaded breakfast burritos pack crisp potatoes, browned sausage, soft eggs, peppers, and melted cheese into one warm tortilla.
Cooking the fillings separately keeps each texture distinct and prevents the burrito from becoming greasy or soggy.

ShiMuv Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 1 pound russet potatoes, diced small
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small red bell pepper, diced
- ½ onion, diced
- 8 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar
- 6 large flour tortillas
- Salsa and sliced avocado for serving
How to Make It
- Cook the potatoes. Microwave diced potatoes with 2 tablespoons water for 3 minutes, drain, dry, then brown in olive oil over medium-high heat for 7–9 minutes.
- Cook the sausage. In the same skillet, brown sausage 7–9 minutes until no pink remains and it reaches 160°F. Drain excess grease.
- Add vegetables. Stir in pepper and onion and cook 4–5 minutes until softened.
- Cook the eggs. Whisk eggs with milk, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium-low heat, folding gently until just set.
- Warm the tortillas. Heat tortillas briefly in a dry skillet or microwave so they bend without tearing.
- Layer the filling. Place potatoes, sausage mixture, eggs, and cheddar slightly below the center of each tortilla.
- Roll tightly. Fold the sides inward, then roll from the bottom while keeping the filling tucked firmly inside.
- Toast and serve. Place burritos seam-side down in a dry skillet for 1–2 minutes per side until lightly crisp. Serve with salsa and avocado.
Recipe tip: Let very hot fillings cool for a minute before rolling so steam does not soften the tortilla.
Food safety: Cook breakfast sausage to 160°F and eggs until set. Refrigerate assembled burritos within 2 hours if making ahead.
