Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen tater tots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 links breakfast sausage casing removed
- 8 large eggs lightly beaten
- ⅓ cup half and half*
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 16-ounce can refried beans
- 8 8-inch flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 2 Roma tomatoes diced
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.
- Cook tater tots according to package directions; set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook until browned, about 3–5 minutes, crumbling as it cooks. Drain excess fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the skillet.
- Add eggs to the skillet and cook, whisking, until they just begin to set. Stir in half and half, season with salt and pepper, and continue cooking until thickened and no liquid egg remains, about 3–5 minutes.
- Spread refried beans down the center of each tortilla. Layer with tater tots, sausage, eggs, cheeses, tomatoes, and cilantro. Fold in the sides and roll up burrito style. Place seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Cover and bake until heated through, about 12–15 minutes.
- Serve immediately or wrap for freezing.
Notes
- Half and half substitute: For 1 cup, mix ¾ cup whole milk + ¼ cup heavy cream, or ⅔ cup low fat milk + ⅓ cup heavy cream.
- To freeze: Wrap burritos tightly in plastic wrap or foil and freeze up to 1 month. Reheat by microwaving 4–6 minutes (turning halfway) or baking at 400°F for 30–40 minutes until hot.
