Make ahead Breakfast Burritos

So a while ago I was on Pinterest and I saw a pin about making your own breakfast burritos just like the ones you buy at a certain fast food restaurant and I pinned it. I pinned it because I liked the idea of not having to stop and waste time in those looooong morning drive-thru lines while you’re already running late. When I went to FINALLY make these burritos I clicked on the photo so it can take me to the instructions and there was no link attached to the photo. -_-  So I just decided to try and make my own.

 

For this “recipe” ( if you can call it that ) I really shouldn’t tell you exact measurements because your family is different in size and well the more mouths you plan on feeding the more ingredients you’ll need to use 🙂

INGREDIENTS:
1 pkg sausage 
1 Pkg. Hash browns
8 to 10  eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 pkg. shredded cheese (I use cheddar today, but I have used a Mexican blend)
salt and pepper to taste
1 to 2 pkg. flour tortillas (I used the tortillas that are meant for fajitas. They say “for fajitas” right on the package)

 

 

STEP 1: Cook sausage according to package. Then cut each sausage into small bite size pieces

STEP 2: cook hash browns in the same pan as the sausage

STEP 3: while your hash browns are cooking, in a large mixing bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper

STEP 4: add sausage back to the pan with the hash browns then add the eggs to the sausage mixture and cook until the eggs are done, stirring gently.

STEP 5: warm the tortillas according to package instructions.

STEP 6: After eggs are done – lay a tortilla on counter.  Place egg mixture on tortilla.  Top with cheese.  Roll into a burrito.

When you’re ready to eat these take as many as you need out of the freezer take out of the baggie and the plastic and wrap each burrito in a napkin and warm them through thoroughly

Serve them with any toppings that you want: sour cream, avocado, salsa, etc
Depending on how many eggs you use and how large you make each burrito,  will determine how many burritos you will end up with. Since I used the bigger tortillas I ended up with 12 burritos. But as always, you can switch it up and use the smaller tortillas and make more. Its all about what you want, so make all the necessary changes you want. For example: add green onions, peppers, bacon, etc.

Enjoy!

Product Review: Jimmy Deans Blueberry Pancakes & Sausage on a stick

This is my first ever review and before I go any further I want to say I AM NOT BEING PAID IN ANY WAY TO REVIEW THIS PRODUCT NOR AM I IN ANY WAY AFFILIATED WITH JIMMY DEANS. I simply happen to be strolling the aisles of my local Walmart and stumbled upon these.

Now your favorite breakfast foods are even easier to eat. We wrapped a delicious sausage inside a sweet blueberry pancake, and put it on a stick to make it portable.- Jimmy Deans website

 

 

Let me start by saying I am NOT usually a fan of these “freezer on a stick ” type foods, buuuuut I am a BIG fan of these! The sausage has a great flavor because of the turkey and the whole sweet and savory mix is frankly heaven on earth :p These are also convenient for those mornings when you are running late…pop one or two in the microwave and BAM you’re ready to go.  One last thing. You know how usually freezer foods that are meant to be microwaved usually come out tough and chewy? well these surprisingly did not come out that way to me.

Well guys in my opinion these are worth the price. Go out and give them a try!

 

Overnight cake batter oats

I’ve heard about cake batter oats through reading other blogs, however it wasn’t until I found this overnight recipe that I wanted to try it.

Overnight cake batter oats:
Mix all of the following into a bowl, cover, and let sit until morning..

2/3 cup of old fashioned oats
1/2 cup of milk
2 heaping tsp of yellow cake mix (any cake mix you have/like)
2 heaping tsp of vanilla yogurt

The above was the exact recipe however in trying to follow this exactly, I spilled the oats container and some spilled all over and into my bowl so mine was off…

I only had white cake mix so I used that also I used plain yogurt because that’s what I had on hand so let’s just say I had a little trouble lol

I added chocolate chips and bananas to mine in the morning and despite all the changes it still tasted pretty good! Therefore I think its safe to say you can add and change anything you like and you should be good. I will be trying peanut butter and nutella tonight and ill show you the finished product via Twitter tomorrow morning.

Here’s the oats the night before
