This Mexican-inspired breakfast burrito recipe makes a large batch of fixings. My wife and I love eating Mexican, so I came up with this recipe for more variety in our morning meals. We are busy and don't have time to make elaborate meals in the morning. In the past, we have bought frozen breakfast burritos, but they are not very tasty, and I knew they could be improved.

  • milk: 0.66667 cup

Flatten filling into a rectangular shape with the back of a spoon. Fold the bottom of tortilla snugly over filling, then fold in the left and right edges. Roll burrito up to the top edge, forming a tight cylinder. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios
