Ingredients

• 6 pieces large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 6 pieces bacon slices
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 4 pieces flour tortillas
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.5 cup diced red bell pepper
• 0.5 cup diced onion
• 0.5 cup salsa
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, cook the bacon slices over medium heat until crisp. Remove the bacon and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Once cool, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

Step 3

Wipe the skillet clean and add the butter. Heat over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the diced red bell pepper and onion to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook gently, stirring frequently, until the eggs are fully scrambled and set. Remove from heat.

Step 6

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 20 seconds to make them pliable.

Step 7

To assemble each burrito, place a warm tortilla on a flat surface. Add a quarter of the scrambled eggs, a quarter of the cooked bacon, 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, and a tablespoon or two of salsa. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro if desired.

Step 8

Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to form a burrito.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

Step 10

Serve immediately, or wrap each burrito tightly in foil for an on-the-go breakfast or make-ahead option.
