Freezer Breakfast Burritos

So here’s my other freezer breakfast – freezer breakfast burritos. I kept them really simple with egg, sausage, and cheese. I was able to get a package of tortillas for 69 cents. It said there was 10 in a package, but when I opened mine, I lucked out, there were 1!. I was able to get my dozen eggs for 99 cent, a bag of shredded cheddar cheese for $1.50, and then I purchase 1 pound of Jimmy Dean sausage for $3.
I must say I am a Jimmy Dean fan. For me, it’s worth the extra money to get Jimmy Dean (You can get big rolls of Jimmy Dean at Sam’s and Costco for a great price too). I have purchased other ground sausage before and nothing compares to the quality of Jimmy Dean. It was their reduced fat version that I used in these. So because I went for the pricier sausage I was able to make these for 54 cents each.
The other thing about the burritos is you can add so many other ingredients like green pepper, hash browns, onion, green chilies, salsa, garlic, tomatoes, or green onion. You can also use different meats. I didn’t mix salsa into the eggs because not everyone like the burrito that way. Those you like salsa can just dip their burrito in it instead.
