How to Make Beef and Egg Breakfast Burrito
  1. Get ready for the heart of your burrito by building a perfectly seasoned beef and veggie base that’s packed with savory flavor.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add ground beef, and cook until golden brown (about 5 minutes).
  3. Stir in diced onion, garlic, and bell peppers; cook 3–4 minutes until soft.
  4. Sprinkle chili powder, salt, and pepper over the mixture; stir to coat thoroughly and cook one more minute.
  5. In a separate pan over medium heat, whisk eggs until soft curds form (about 2–3 minutes); remove immediately.
  6. Wrap flour tortillas in foil, bake at 350°F for 5 minutes, or microwave until soft.
  7. Combine the savory beef, fluffy eggs, cheese, and cilantro into a tortilla; roll it tight.
  8. Fold the sides in and roll from the bottom up; slice in half and serve with sour cream, avocado, or hot sauce.
