Description

A high-protein, freezer-friendly breakfast burrito made with roasted Yukon gold potatoes, halal chicken sausage, and a creamy egg-cottage cheese blend.


Ingredients

Scale

2 Yukon gold potatoes, ½-inch diced
2 bell peppers, ½-inch diced
1 small yellow onion, ½-inch diced
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon kosher salt
to ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
6 ounces precooked halal chicken sausage links, diced
1 cup low fat cottage cheese
8 large eggs
⅔ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
10 to 12 tortillas of choice


Instructions

  1. Preat oven to 400°F and place rack in the center.
  2. Toss potatoes, peppers, and onions in a 9×13 dish with oil and seasonings. Roast for 15 minutes.
  3. Stir in chicken sausage and roast for another 15 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  4. Blender eggs and cottage cheese until completely smooth.
  5. Pour egg mixture over vegetables, top with cheese, and bake 10-15 minutes until set.
  6. Cool filling completely, slice into rectangles, and wrap in tortillas with foil or parchment.
  7. Refrigerate or freeze, then reheat in microwave or crisp in a skillet.

Notes

  • Ensure filling is at room temperature before freezing to avoid sogginess.
  • Use certified halal chicken chorizo for the best flavor profile.
  • Skillet crisping after microwaving gives the best texture.
