  • While the hash browns are baking, prepare the scrambled eggs. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat.

  • Add the egg mixture to the skillet and cook gently, stirring with a rubber spatula to form soft, creamy curds. Once cooked through, transfer the scrambled eggs to a large mixing bowl.

    3 Tablespoons Salsa

Notes

Tips and Tricks
  • Use thick salsa for a more substantial filling that won’t run out of the burrito.
  • For a spicier kick, try adding some chopped jalapeños or hot sauce to the egg mixture.
  • Feel free to add other fillings like cheese, avocado, or cooked bacon for extra flavor.
  • When storing, make sure to tightly wrap the burritos to prevent them from drying out. To reheat, simply microwave for about 1 minute or reheat in a skillet.
