Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Breakfast Potatoes

    In a skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the diced breakfast potatoes and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally, season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sausage

    In the same skillet, add the breakfast sausage. Cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Add the diced bell pepper and onion to the skillet with the sausage. Cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Scramble the Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk the eggs together. Pour them into the skillet over the sausage and vegetables. Stir gently until eggs are fully cooked, about 3-4 minutes.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Burrito

    Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a portion of the sausage, vegetable, and egg mixture into the center, followed by a sprinkle of shredded jack cheese and a portion of breakfast potatoes.

  2. 6

    Roll the Burrito

    Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it tightly from the bottom up to encase the filling completely. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.

Serving

  1. 7

    Smother the Burritos

    Place the rolled burritos in a baking dish. Pour salsa over the top and sprinkle with any remaining jack cheese. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes until heated through and cheese is melted.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Garnish with sour cream and chopped cilantro before serving. Enjoy your smothered burritos!
