Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls
  • Large Pan

Ingredients
  

  • 8 low carb tortillas
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 8 pieces breakfast sausage cooked and diced
  • 2 peppers diced
  • One onion diced
  • 1 1/8 cup shredded fat free mozzarella or cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup frozen hash browns

Instructions
 

Filling
  • Start by dicing and cooking your veggies with your frozen hash browns. Once everything is cooked through and your potatoes start to brown, remove from heat, re-spray your pan.
  • Beat your eggs with your almond milk, salt, pepper, and add them to the veggies. Over medium heat, use a spatula to keep your eggs moving - this is the key to a nice fluffy scramble.
  • Meanwhile, pop your sausage patties in the microwave (if not fully cooked, just cook them separately). Once you've got your eggs and sausage cooked, dice up the sausage and you can toss the hash, eggs, and sausage together.
Assembly
  • Let your filling cool enough that you can handle it comfortably. Lay your tortilla flat and lay down some cheese first. Then scoop roughly 1/4 cup of filling into the burrito, about 2 inches below the center.
  • Slightly wet the top edge of the burrito by dipping your fingers in a bit of water. Fold the bottom edge up, then fold in the sides, and tightly roll the entire burrito, leaving it seam side down.
  • Re-heat your pan over medium heat and spray well with cooking spray. Place burritos seam-side down and pan fry for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown. Flip and repeat.
Storage
  • Allow burritos to cool. Wrap tightly in tin foil and store in the fridge. If planning to freeze, wrap with a layer of parchment paper then a layer of foil and freeze for up to 3 months.
Reheating
  • Reheat in the microwave by microwaving on high for 45 seconds out of the fridge, up to 3-4 minutes if frozen (continue to cook until middle is warmed through). If air frying, air fry at 375 for 5 minutes from the fridge, 10-12 minutes from the freezer.
