“Life expectancy would grow by leaps and bounds if green vegetables smelled as good as bacon.”
— Doug Larson
Salad for breakfast? No, thank you. I didn’t work my way up the food chain to eat like a rabbit.
Now, you have my attention.
The breakfast burrito, aka breakfast wrap, is a ‘Murican breakfast composed of all of our favorite breakfast constituents wrapped inside a flour tortilla, just the way lawd intended.
As an American cuisine, this burrito originated from New Mexico, and made an appearance on the eatery menus in 1975 – although the rolled breakfast tortilla existed in the culture well before that time – and from there it moved into the fast-food giant, McDonald’s, menu in the ‘80s and it wasn’t long before most fast-food chains offered them.
Today breakfast burrito has expanded well beyond the Southwest and neighboring Tex-Mex to Montana, obviously, and The Taste of Montana food fare headquarters, aka our kitchen. It does a very good job of tempting Vida, or any other night owl, to become a morning person.
These bundles of savory meaty deliciousness are protein-packed and provide enough fuel for your mornings so that cup o’ joe doesn’t have you running on empty. Your belly will stay satisfied right up until lunchtime or maybe even late afternoon. The best part is that they keep very well and can be cooked and frozen ahead of time so in the morning you can focus on conquering the world or something like that.
We may be partial, but our burritos are beautiful inside and outside and smoked inside and outside. They are loaded with bacon, eggs, cheese, and hash browns, rolled in a tortilla, and topped with a creamy sauce that you’d want to drizzle on all the bland food sitting in your fridge.
There’s no one right way to cook or one right way to make a breakfast burrito but if you follow our instructions, you’re guaranteed perfect results and will thank yourself later and hopefully us too.
The essence of this recipe hinges on the bacon, which as you probably already know, any recipe that involves bacon has a better chance of working out. Montana’s Pioneer Meat’s bacon is high-quality and guarantees your ultimate gourmet bacon-eating experience for a better start to your day….Channeling Tony The Tiger…because they are GREEAATE!
