Breakfast Burritos

I've mentioned before that we REALLY enjoy our breakfast foods. This is one that my husband would love to eat for breakfast everyday:) We always make these when we go camping. The week before our last camping trip, every morning when I would ask our 2 year old what he wanted for breakfast he would say, "breakfast burritos up on the mountain." I am really not much of a morning person. Usually in the morning I barely have time to cook up the oatmeal, toast, juice or occasionally a fruit shake and get the kids out the door to school and husband off to work. These really don't take much time, but since I make the tortillas from scratch it takes a little longer. I just can't bring myself to buy tortillas when they are SO cheap to make.

Anyway, I felt like spoiling my husband(and my boys) this morning before he headed off for his elk hunt. You can really add anything you like to these. I sometimes makethese with regular bacon, but decided to reduce the fat and substituted Canadian Bacon. They were SO good!!

Wrap your eggs in a tortilla with some cheese and serve with your favorite fix-ins....salsa, sour cream, guacamole, whatever you like or have on hand.

I love it when you can buy roasted green chili here locally!! We split a 30 pound bag with my bro-in-law. We got 15 lbs. for ~$15. SO much cheaper than buying it in the can!! I just peel the skin off, get out most of the seeds, throw it in my food processor and pulse a few times. I put it in small snack size bags to freeze. So yummy!! We eat green chili with ALMOST everything:)
