**Breakfast Beef Burritos**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 pound ground beef
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 small onion, diced
– 1 bell pepper, diced
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– 1 teaspoon chili powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 8 large eggs
– 1/4 cup milk
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 8 large flour tortillas
– Optional toppings: salsa, diced tomatoes, avocado, sour cream
**Instructions:**
1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, and sauté until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
2. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook the beef until it is no longer pink, about 7-8 minutes.
3. Season the beef mixture with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine the flavors. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside.
4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well blended.
5. In a separate non-stick skillet, melt a bit of butter over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are softly scrambled.
6. To assemble the breakfast burritos, lay out a tortilla and spoon a portion of the beef mixture onto the center. Top with a spoonful of scrambled eggs and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
7. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it up tightly, ensuring all the fillings are securely tucked inside.
8. Place the assembled burrito back into the skillet for a minute to lightly toast the outside and melt the cheese.
9. Continue assembling the remaining burritos in the same way.
10. Serve the Breakfast Beef Burritos warm, with your choice of toppings such as salsa, diced tomatoes, avocado slices, or a dollop of sour cream.
These Breakfast Beef Burritos are a versatile morning meal that can be customized to suit your tastes – add in some diced jalapeños for a spicy kick or swap the cheddar cheese for pepper jack for a zesty twist.
