High Protein Breakfast Burritos
The best meal prep breakfast that is packed with protein, flavor and so easy to make!
- 1 red bell pepper chopped
- 1 green bell pepper chopped
- 1 poblano pepper chopped
- 1 yellow onion chopped
- 1 package turkey sausage
- 10 large pasture raised eggs
- 1 cup of egg whites
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1 packet Taco seasoning season generously and adjust until desired flavor- I do 1 full packet of siete spicy taco seasoning
- Red pepper flakes if you like more spice
- Cheese (optional)
- Big flour/ whole wheat tortillas
- Yellow bird jalapeño hot sauce to dip
Cook the sausage until no longer pink. Season with taco and or chorizo seasoning.
In a separate pan, sauté the onions and peppers until soft, add generous amount of taco seasoning
Whisk eggs, egg whites and cottage cheese, add to peppers. After eggs are cooked add sausage to egg mixture
Put cheese in tortilla and add egg mixture atop. We toast ours on a skillet, or toss it in the air fryer to get a little crispy- totally optional though but it makes it SO much better to have it crispy!
Makes about 8 burritos! I roll them all up and store in the fridge for a week in a container!
To reheat: My favorite way is to fry at 350 in the air fryer for 15 minutes. If I have less time, I will just do the microwave wrapped up in a damp paper towel!!
You can also make this mixture into tacos, or as a scramble with some toast or fruit on the side!
