Why These Bacon Breakfast Burritos Are a Morning Game-Changer
What sets these breakfast burritos apart is their winning combination of flavor, simplicity, and portability. The crispy bacon, fluffy eggs, and melty cheese wrapped in a soft tortilla ensure every bite is crave-worthy. Customizable fillings mean you can tailor them to suit any preference or dietary need. And with make-ahead meal prep, there’s no excuse to skip breakfast again!
Gathering and Prepping Ingredients the Smart Way
Efficiency is key with meal prep. To make quick work of chopping onions, peppers, or other veggies, use the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper to dice everything in seconds while keeping the mess minimal. Cooking bacon is a cinch either in a reliable skillet or in the oven for batch-cooking.
Once fillings are prepped, set up your assembly line including cooked bacon, fluffy scrambled eggs, sautéed veggies, shredded cheese, and your favorite large tortillas. For perfectly scrambled eggs that won’t stick or overcook, reach for a trustworthy SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch.
Building Your Bacon Breakfast Burritos
Lay each tortilla flat and layer with fillings, keeping portions consistent for even rolling. Roll tightly, folding in the sides as you go to keep fillings from leaking.
For extra meal prep convenience, store assembled burritos on a sheet of Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll, 45 Square Feet before baking or freezing—this keeps them from sticking and makes wrapping for the freezer ultra-easy.
How to Store, Reheat, and Enjoy (Meal Prep Made Simple)
Wrap each burrito in parchment or foil, then pop them into Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers, Set of 5 (3.2 Cup) for maximum freshness. Store in the fridge (up to 4 days) or freezer (up to 2 months). For reheating, the microwave works in a pinch, but for extra crispness, try an COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1, Compact & Large 6-Qt, Grey to bring back that just-cooked texture.
Serve with salsa, avocado, or your favorite hot sauce, and grab your beverage of choice for the perfect on-the-go breakfast.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Cook the bacon in a large SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch over medium heat until crisp. Set on paper towels to drain, then crumble or chop.
- While the bacon cooks, dice the peppers and onions using a Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper to save time and ensure even pieces.
- In the same pan (wipe out excess bacon grease if necessary, but leave about 1 tsp for flavor), sauté onions and peppers over medium heat until softened, 2–3 minutes. Add chopped spinach and cook until wilted.
- Crack eggs into a bowl, season with salt & pepper, and whisk until blended. Pour into the pan with the veggies and scramble gently until just set. Stir in the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese until melty.
- Lay tortillas flat on a sheet of Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll. Evenly divide the egg mixture among tortillas. Fold in the sides, then roll up tightly to form burritos.
- If eating right away, heat burritos in the pan or air fryer for 1–2 minutes per side for a crispy finish. For meal prep, wrap in parchment or foil and store in Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers.
- To reheat, microwave (wrapped in damp paper towel) for 1–2 minutes or air fry at 350°F for 5–8 minutes, until warmed through. Add salsa, avocado, or hot sauce if desired and enjoy!
