- Pinch salt
- 12 eggs
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 10 burrito-sized tortillas
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Cook the meat in a medium skillet over medium heat until done, then remove with a slotted spoon to a bowl.
- In the same skillet, add chopped vegetables and a pinch of salt, sautéing until soft, about 3-5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and cottage cheese, adding a bit of salt and pepper. Pour this into the skillet with the vegetables and scramble the eggs.
- On a tortilla, place ¾ cup of the egg mixture, 2 tablespoons of meat, and 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla and roll it up to form a burrito. Repeat until all ingredients are used up.
- If preparing in advance, wrap each burrito in foil and freeze to prevent sticking. They can be grouped in a plastic bag or container and stored for up to 2 months.
- Alternatively, store wrapped burritos in the fridge for up to 1 week.
- To reheat, microwave until heated through or bake in the oven at 375°F for 15-20 minutes.

Freezing the burritos allows for easy meal prep; just unwrap and reheat when needed.
