Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salsa, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined. (2 minutes)

02

Step
1 mins

Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. (1 minute)

03

Step
7 mins

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and scramble, gently pushing the cooked egg towards the center while tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. (5-7 minutes)

04

Step
1 mins

Just before the eggs are fully set but still slightly moist, sprinkle the shredded Cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Fold the cheese into the eggs until it begins to melt. (1 minute)

05

Step
2 mins

Lay the warmed tortillas on a flat surface. Divide the scrambled egg mixture equally between the two tortillas, placing it in the bottom third of each tortilla. (2 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Fold the bottom third of each tortilla over the filling, tucking it in slightly. Fold in the two sides, and then roll up tightly to form a burrito. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Serve immediately and enjoy the fusion of flavors in every bite.

For an extra kick, add a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the egg mixture or sprinkle some chopped jalapeños on top.
Feel free to customize the filling with other Southwestern-inspired ingredients like black beans, corn, avocado, or cooked chorizo.
Warming the tortillas before assembling the burritos will make them more pliable and easier to roll.
These burritos can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for a quick and easy breakfast during the week. Simply reheat in the microwave or oven until warmed through.
