This simple recipes requires just 4 ingredients plus salt and pepper.

Here's what you'll need:

• Bacon. You can cook your own or save time and by pre-cooked bacon. Want to go lean? Try turkey bacon. You can also use cooked sausage, or for a vegetarian option, skip the meat altogether.
• Cheese. Mild cheddar is faithfuylly delicous but feel free to change up the flavor by choose any type of cheese you'd like. Just bout any cheese works. Try colby jack, pepper jack, Havarti... whatever sounds good. I like to use feta if I am making these burritos vegetarian.
• Eggs. I prefer organic eggs because they generally taste a lot better but feel free to go with what works for you and your budget. You can also opt to use egg whites only for a lower fat option.
• Salt and pepper. Add these to taste. I add these into the eggs while cooking.

I love to add hot sauce to these but that's totally optional.

★ Variations ★

Vegetarian Variation

I love make a version that's a copycat Starbuck's breakfast burrito. To make this variation, I use feta plus cream cheese, fresh spinach and sun-dried tomatoes. I use egg whites only for this, no meat, and no other cheese.

Southwest Veggie Wrap Variation

Another Starbucks special! You can easily achieve a homeade version by adding black beans, diced canned potatoes (drained and rinsed), Cotija cheese, pico de gallo, diced jalapeño and cream cheese all wrapped in a tomato tortilla. No bacon, no other cheeses.

As you can see, you can get very creative with this recipe or keep it basic. Mix it up week to week so breakfast is never boring!

★ Tips & FAQs ★

For a Crisp Outer Shell

You can crisp up the outside of these burritos two ways. Toast the finished burritos in a toaster oven for 2-4 minutes or until lightly toasted.

You can also crisp each side of your burrito on the stovetop. Heat a skillet with a pad of butter over medium-high heat. Add the burrito the the pan after butter has melted, let each side of the tortilla cook for 2-3 minutes or until light golden brown.

Optional Sauces

I really love picante sauce on my breakfast burritos. You can also go with hot sauce which of course as some heat.

Sliced avocado or guacamole pair well with these breakfast burritos as well.

Creamy Hollandaise sauce is another great choice as well as white country gravy.
