Keep in mind, some of these ingredients won’t freeze very well, such as guacamole or asparagus. So use your best judgment if you plan to freeze these. Some fillings might be better to use if you plan to eat these fresh.

Ingredients

• Frozen tater tots – If you prefer, you can use hash browns or grilled diced potatoes. Leftovers work great!
• Avocado oil – Any vegetable oil like olive oil or canola oil can be used as a substitute.
• Seasoned pork sausage – You can swap this with turkey sausage, chicken sausage, or vegetarian sausage for a meatless version. Pork sausage will give you a classic breakfast sausage flavor.
• Large eggs – If you have dietary restrictions, you can use egg substitutes or tofu as an alternative.
• Heavy cream – For a lighter option, use whole milk or a dairy-free alternative like almond milk. Just use a little less if your milk is thin.
• Salt and pepper – Feel free to experiment with your favorite herbs and spices to enhance the flavors.
• Burrito-size flour tortillas – Opt for whole wheat or gluten-free tortillas if desired, but classic flour tortillas freeze well and thaw quite soft and fresh.
• Refried beans – A can from the Tex-Mex aisle will work great. Black beans or pinto beans can be used as a tasty replacement.
• Shredded Mexican blend cheese – Cheddar, Monterey Jack, or any spicy cheese of your choice can be used here.

How to Make

STE ONE: Preheat the oven and bake the tater tots. Preheat the oven to 400° F. Cook tater tots according to package instructions. 

STEP TWO: Cook the sausage and eggs. Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned. Add the eggs to the skillet and cook, whisking until they just begin to set. Gently whisk in half and half, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking until thickened, about 3-5 minutes. 

STEP THREE: Prep the burritos. Spread the refried beans down the centers of the tortillas. Top with tater tots, sausage and egg mixture, and cheese. Fold on opposite sides of each tortilla, then roll up burrito-style. 

STEP FOUR: Wrap the burritos. Wrap each burrito in parchment paper and tie it with cooking twine. You can also place each one in a small Ziploc bag, just be careful they don’t unwrap! Place the burritos into a large, freezer-safe Ziploc bag, label them, and freeze.

STEP FIVE: Reheat. You can reheat it from frozen by placing the opened burrito on the parchment paper in the microwave. Cook for 2 minutes, flip, the cook an additional 2 minutes.

Tips and Recipe Notes

• Allow the cooked ingredients to cool slightly before assembling the burritos. This helps to prevent the tortilla from getting soggy.
• Don’t overstuff the burritos; a moderate amount of filling will make rolling them up easier.
• When reheating, flip the burrito halfway through. This helps the burrito reheat more evenly.
