    salt and pepper
    12 - 8 inch tortilla shells (low-carb)


Tips

Original recipe used 12 whole eggs. Watching my cholesterol, I used 6 whole eggs and 6 egg whites. Original recipe also had bacon, which I omitted.


Directions

Instructions

Scramble the eggs in a large skillet. When they are done, remove from the stove and place in a covered bowl.
Saute the onion, hash brown potatoes, and red peppers in the olive oil for 2-3 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked.
Stir in the garlic, sausage, and cheese. Season to taste with the salt and pepper. Divide the mixture onto the tortilla shells. Roll each one up, folding the ends as you roll.
Place seam side down on a parchment lined baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour. Place the burritos into freezer safe ziplock bags and return to the freezer.
To reheat the burritos, wrap one in a paper towel. Heat for 1-2 minutes. Makes 12 burritos.
