SCRAMBLED EGGS

3. Pour eggs onto heated pan and use a spatula to scramble until fully cooked. Set aside.

ROASTED POTATOES

1. First, preheat oven to 400ºF and place a piece of tin foil on a baking sheet.
2. Prep potatoes by cubing into small chunks. Then place on baking sheet.
3. Drizzle on 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with paprika, garlic powder, and salt and pepper.
4. Use hands to toss to make sure everything is evenly coated.
5. Roast for 30 minutes at 400ºF. Toss half way through. Set aside.

BREAKFAST SAUSAGE

3. Use a spatula to sauté until fully cooked. Set aside.

BURRITOS

1. First, heat tortillas for a few seconds in the microwave (this will help with the folding process).
2. Then, get building! Add scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, breakfast sausage, and a sprinkle of cheese on top of your tortilla. You should make around 10-12 burritos.
3. Make your burritos by folding two sides in and then rolling.
4. Tightly wrap each burrito in tin foil, making sure there are no pockets of air. Then, write the name and date on each burrito for later!
