DIY Frozen Breakfast Burritos

How to make your own frozen breakfast burritos for your busy family.  A cheap and quick breakfast idea for busy mornings.
 
I saw the idea for breakfast burritos on Pinterest a very long time ago and I have been making them ever since.  It’s turned out to be a good thing for our family when we are in need of quick and cheap breakfast ideas for busy mornings.  So here’s how we make DIY Frozen Breakfast Burritos for about .40 cents a piece!
 
 
 
We’ve been making frozen breakfast food for many years.  One of my earliest blog posts is all about how to make easy freezer pancakes.  We make our pancakes with %100 whole wheat flour and they are THE BEST whole wheat freezer pancakes!  We make a whole bunch and freeze for a quick, healthy breakfast on school mornings.  
 
We also make our own fresh strawberry syrup and freeze that as well.  Our quick homemade freezer syrup is so fresh and delicious.  You’ll want and to check that out too. 
 
Also, if you need more than just breakfast freezer meals, you’ll want to visit Saving Cent By Cent where she gives you 7 Make Ahead Freezer Meals.

How to make DIY Frozen Breakfast Burritos

 
My Little Son loves having eggs or a protein for breakfast, but most mornings I just don’t have time to cook up some eggs.  So this totally helps with that.  He can get one out of the freezer, microwave it for 1 minute and he’s good to go!  I love to have them too.
 
Tips for making frozen breakfast burritos:
 
To make the breakfast burrito process faster, scramble your eggs with any extras like sausage, bacon bits, onions, peppers, or hashbrowns.
 
Use a large pan to get all the eggs scrambled at once.
 
Get the family to help and everybody does one part of the burrito-making process.  One person scoops the eggs, another adds the cheese, another person folds the tortilla, and the final person wraps the breakfast burrito.
 
If you have time, make a variety of breakfast burritos so they are not all exactly the same.  Keeps it from getting boring!
 
To make it healthier, add veggies, use whole wheat tortillas, use egg whites, use turkey sausage or turkey bacon.  So many possibilities!
 
 
For Frozen Breakfast Burritos you will need:
 
1-2 dozen eggs, scrambled
1 lb turkey sausage, crumbled and cooked
1 bell pepper, diced
2-3 packages of tortillas (10 inch size works well)
salt and pepper to taste
 
Optional: shredded cheese, hash brown potatoes, jalepenos, crumbled bacon.
 
 
 
Here’s how you make DIY breakfast burritos:
 
 
 
Cook up a big ‘ol batch of scrambled eggs.  We added turkey sausage and bell peppers.  Add whatever you love.  1 1/2 dozen eggs ($2.00) and 1 lb or turkey sausage ($3.50)
 
 
 
 
Get a bunch of tortillas.  I do whole wheat and white flour tortillas.  The whole wheat are healthier, but it’s nice to switch it up sometimes.  I got mine for $2.08 per package of 10.
 
 
 
 
 
 Get your kidlets to help make an assembly line.  And fill ’em and wrap ’em in plastic wrap.  The fold-top baggies work well too.
 
 
 
 
 
 
I scoop about 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup of eggs onto each burrito.  You could add cheese or salsa here too.
 
 
 
 
 
 
We wrap ours in plastic wrap and then store in a large Ziploc freezer gallon size bag.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Store individually wrapped burritos in large Ziplocs to keep them fresh longer.
 
 
 
So here’s how we got our cheap breakfast burrito price:
 
1 1/2 dozen eggs $2.00
1 lb turkey sausage $3.50
1 bell pepper (from the garden, but can cost up to $1.00)
2 1/2 packages of tortillas $2.08 each, so $5.20 total
 
  2.00
  3.50
+5.20
= 10.70 (without the cost of the bell pepper)
 
We got 25 burritos out of this batch.  So $10.70 divided by 25 burritos is about .43 cents!  You can make it cheaper or a little more depending on your prices or what you add.  Enjoy a quick, cheap, full of protein breakfast.

New movie coming out that I want to see. I remembe New movie coming out that I want to see. I remember when this happened in 1989. The boy Josh was lost in an abandoned mine in UT for 5 days. It was a miracle how they found him. He was about my age so it made an impression on me. Now this true story has been made into a movie called Faith of Angels. @faithofangelsfilm 
Check out the trailer here: https://upvir.al/158749/lp158749  DO YOU REMEMBER this news story?
Probably one of the best shows I’ve seen at @hal Probably one of the best shows I’ve seen at @halecentretheatre lately!! The Nutty Professor had us laughing all the way to the end and the music was clever and fun.  If you’ve been trying to decide about this one, I’d say don’t miss it! #halecentretheatre #thenuttyprofessormusical #halecentretheatresandy
Did you go to 801 Day at @hoglezoo in Utah? Ticket Did you go to 801 Day at @hoglezoo in Utah? Tickets were only $8.01 on 8/01 and the zoo opened at 8:01 am. 
I went with my nieces and nephews and it was VERY BUSY! (like Disneyland busy). We arrived about 11 am and every parking lot was completely full and side streets were filling fast. Needless to say we had to walk a bit in the heat just to get to the front gate. There were lines to get in, lines, at snack shops, and definitely a line for the train. BUT we saw some animals—-lions, tigers, bears (oh my!)…plus giraffes, zebras, and a leopard.  It was definitely worth $8.01 but it’s not for the faint of heart. A fun adventure! #hoglezoo #801day #familyactivities #hoglezooutah 🐒🐅🦒🐘🦓
So the amount of car wash centers popping up every So the amount of car wash centers popping up everywhere has made me curious. Why are they everywhere?! So we decided to try is and see what the fuss was all about. Here’s the PROS AND CONS we found:

Pros:
• Gentle yet very thorough wash—no scratching!
• Attendants right there to help you
• Fun lights and cool sprayers—it’s like a show!
• Powerful vacuums and extras for detailing

Cons:
• So expensive! This is not your regular $5 car wash. 
• They have limited hours. This one closes by 7 pm so no car washing whenever you want
• Kinda an eyesore to have a car wash in every corner in town. 

What do you think? What Pros and Cons have you found? Do you like these big car was centers?
