This is not exactly a recipe, but guidelines. I make scrambled eggs, cooked bacon or sausage, crumbled OR chopped ham, grated cheese, hash brown potatoes (I use the southern style or diced boiled potatoes, browned), onion, green pepper, and salsa. I usually make these ona morning that I have already made the eggs and potatoes and make extras and make up the burritos and wrap in plastic wrap then foil or into freezer bags. To heat, I pop in teh microwave for 1:30 on high. They are delicious! You can add whatever your family enjoys.
