I may have stumbled upon the most perfectly transportable, absolutely delicious breakfast food ever. These breakfast burritos are fantastic for your next camping trip because they can be made in advance and just thrown on the fire. Camping + burritos = campurritos. Thanks to Ninth and Bird for the awesome name! What other breakfast food can you eat outside in mismatched jammies, while hanging with horses? They’re also fantastic for busy mornings at home. My kids are 5 & 7 and they’re completely capable of heating these up on their own from frozen. You know, while mommy catches up on her beauty sleep gets in an early morning workout.
This recipe is easily adaptable to your own tastes. You can use sausage, ham, bacon, leftover ground taco filling…whatever you’d like for the meat. I added potatoes, onions, eggs and cheese to a Hillshire Farm Smoked Sausage and they were fan-freakin-tastic.
After you’ve cooked all your breakfast goodies and introduced them to each other in a big bowl, set up a burrito filling station somewhere. You’ll need foil, tortillas and your bowl of goodness.
Spread out some foil, set a tortilla on top and slap a big old spoonful of deliciousness in the middle.
Then fold up the two sides like so, and roll it up into a burrito.
Wrap up your burrito in foil and start again. Repeat until all your filling is gone. If you want to freeze them for later, use plastic wrap instead of foil. Boom. Breakfast for days.
Look at all that good stuff. Just waiting to be enjoyed sitting by a campfire. You can season these to your tastes. I used garlic, salt and pepper and they were delicious. If you’re into spicy foods, try adding some hot sauce.
Yuuuuum.
