Hey friends! I’ve been trying to do more meal-prepping in our home. We live busy lives, work full-time, and are parents to a little boy. One thing my husband and I can agree on are these Breakfast Sausage Freezer Burritos. When making these I recommend using burrito size tortillas but taco ones could work if you want to make smaller portions.

There is a step in this recipe where you need to cook frozen tater tots first before you assemble the burritos. I know I’m late to the party saying this, but my air fryer is LIFE CHANGING! Seriously, why did it take me this long to buy an air fryer? I have a toddler and I’m able to make so many meals for him in 10 minutes or less. Anyways, the reason I am bringing it up is that the air fryer is the perfect way to cook the tater tots. You don’t need to wait for your oven to pre-heat. You add the tater tots to the air fryer basket, set it, and forget it!

Directions on how to make Breakfast Sausage Freezer Burritos
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. and grease a baking sheet.
Step 2: Cook tater tots according to package instructions and then set aside.
Step 3: Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook until browned. Crumble the sausage as it cooks, drain the excess fat, save 1 tablespoon in the skillet.

Yum! So easy but they sound delicious! I usually don’t put refried beans in my breafast burritos, but that’s a great way to mix it up!
It’s really good. First time I tried it was with these burritos and it really adds something to it. Makes it hearty!
