Quick & Easy Breakfast Burrito

Sometimes simple, quick breakfasts are necessary, but that doesn’t mean they have to be boring. We often make breakfast burritos using various leftovers — toss in some scrambled eggs and shredded cheese and goodness awaits!

We had tacos a couple of nights ago — basic taco-seasoned ground pork — and we also had some leftover rice pilaf. Warmed both of those in the microwave while scrambling the eggs. We filled low-carb tortillas with our meat & rice, added the scrambled eggs, sliced black olives, a little diced onion & red bell pepper, a dollop of sour cream and some shredded Chihuahua cheese and our simple, tasty, taco-inspired breakfast burritos were all set.

Though this weekend’s filling was pretty basic compared with some others we’ve made, truly anything goes! What are some of your favorite breakfast burrito fillings?

Happy Easter & Happy Spring!

We colored some eggs last night using a kit we bought for $5 at Target. It came with different decorative stickers & tapes as well as the 6 different colored tablets for egg-dyeing fun. Kept our 7-year-old entertained for the evening & she did a wonderful job with her designs! She was so proud of herself & I liked how easy it was for her to make what she called “professional-looking” eggs just by adding some seasonal stickers.

Happy Easter to those who celebrate & Happy Spring to those who don’t. Hope you all have a wonderful day!
