Servings: 6
Ingredients
For the Breakfast Burritos:
- 1-2 Bell Peppers finely chopped
- 1/2 Yellow Onion finely chopped
- 2 Yukon Gold Potatoes chopped
- 2 tbsp. Olive Oil
- 2 tsp. EACH: Ground Cumin, & Brown Sugar
- 1 tsp. EACH: Salt, Black Pepper, Smoked Paprika, & Dried Oregano
- 1 lb. Ground Beef or Ground Breakfast Sausage
- 6-8 Eggs
- 1 cup Cottage Cheese
- 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 6-8 Tortillas warmed
(Optional) For the Korean-Inspired Sauce:
- 1 1/2 cups Plain Greek Yogurt
- 1 tbsp. Gochujang
- 1 tsp. Chili Crisp Oil
- Juice of 1 Lemon
Instructions
For the Sauce:
- Combine all ingredients together in a bowl. Mix until smooth. Set aside.
For the Sheet Pan Egg Bake:
- Preheat oven to 400F. Grease a 9x13" baking with butter (and line the bottom with parchment paper if it's nonstick).
- Combine the chopped bell peppers, onion, potatoes, olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and dried oregano. Toss to combine, then roast for 20 minutes, until potatoes are fork tender.
- Use your fingers to break up the ground beef (or breakfast sausage) into small pieces in the sheet pan. Season with ground cumin and brown sugar, then toss to combine all ingredients. Bake another 10 minutes.
- Add the eggs and cottage cheese in a separate bowl. Whisk well. Pour over the meat and veggies mixture.
- Use a spatula to evenly distribute all ingredients in the sheet pan. Top with the shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake until set in the center and crispy along the edges, about 15-20 minutes.
To Assemble the Burritos:
- The amount of egg bake for each burrito will depend on the size of tortillas used. Add a generous spoonful of the sauce (or anything sauce of liking) on each warmed tortilla, followed by a serving slice of the egg bake. Roll up tightly, then wrap in parchment paper and foil.
To Store & Reheat:
- Store in the fridge up to 5 days, or in the freezer (in a freezer-safe bag) up to 2 months.
- Reheat from the fridge uncovered at 400F for 5-8 minutes, or covered in foil from the freezer at 350F for 15-20 minutes. Enjoy!
