It's Monday...time to start planning for the weekend


Entertaining over Labor Day? What could be better than breakfast burritos?

Breakfast Burritos - feeds 6

Needs:
Small Tortillas
6 small grape tomatoes
2 larger tomatillos (husked & rinsed)
1/4 vidalia onion
1/2 yellow pepper
1 avocado
1 jalapeno. if you're scared of the real thing, you can use dry - find it in the spices
Cheese (I used mexican cheese, jeff likes habenero)
6 eggs

Chop the tomatoes, tomatillos, onion, peppers. (put jalapenos in now if using the real thing) Put in a pan, sprayed with pam on medium high heat until onions are nearly translucent.

(laugh if you want - but all the colors make it look appetizing!!!)


While this is cooking up, cut open your avocado and slice into strips. Once your vegetables are ready you can do 1 of two things -

if you are a texture freak like me - take the veggies out and put in bowl - cover w/a plate to stay warm. Crack the eggs into the pan and scramble. (if using dried jalapeno - add a tsp now)
Then get your tortilla out - put some slices of avocado on, put a handful of cheese, add your eggs and top with the veggies...roll eat and enjoy.

If you aren't a texture freak - then add the eggs right in with the veggies. Put in your jalepeno spice and once your eggs are cooked up - throw them onto your tortillas - put some slices of avocado on top. Roll up and eat!

If you are making this just for one - you can cut down the veggies and just use 1 or 2 eggs. OR cut up all your veggies, reserve enough for now and put the rest in a ziploc bag in the freezer. Label the ziploc before you put the veggies in...next time you want a burrito - grab the bag and put it right into the pan and you are ready to go.
