Burrito... Breakfast Burritos & Beef 'n' Bean Burrito... Yummmmmm

My husband makes burritos to die for...  He has really perfected his recipe then we team up and I make a salsa that compliments the burrito and we're off...  Recently, he has started making breakfast burritos.  He uses scrambled eggs with home fries, breakfast sausage and sometimes beans & salsa, sometimes not.  He'll make a whole bunch, wrap and freeze them for a quick satisfying meal on the run...  Now, just roll and enjoy!!

Loopy Flowers
