The big appeal of these Make-a-head breakfast burritos is that for about an hour’s worth of cooking, you’ve got breakfast for a week or two and you know you’re getting fresh high-quality food unlike a lot of pre-packaged frozen breakfast burritos.
Eggs-cellent Scrambling
I know we all think scrambling eggs is easy, but truth be told, it can be difficult to get right and that’s especially true when you’re making bulk scrambled eggs. The most important part of scrambled eggs is to incorporate enough air into them to make them fluffy. A common misconception is that scrambled eggs need milk, but in reality, it just makes the eggs take longer to cook and can add a slimy undesirable texture. Just remember if you want light fluffy scrambled eggs in your make-ahead freezer breakfast burritos then you’re going to need to whip the devil out of your eggs!
