Ingredients:

  • 1 lb lean ground turkey sausage
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 cup liquid egg whites
  • 1 cup finely diced bell peppers and onions
  • 2 cups frozen shredded hash browns, thawed and dried
  • 10 large 10-inch whole wheat tortillas
  • 1.5 cups reduced-fat shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 0.5 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp cracked black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Brown the turkey sausage. Place the meat in a large skillet over medium high heat, breaking it into small crumbles. Cook 7 to 9 minutes until browned and no longer pink. Remove with a slotted spoon to leave the fat behind.
  2. Sauté the vegetables and starch. Add the thawed hash browns, bell peppers, and onions to the same skillet. Cook 5 to 7 minutes until potatoes are golden brown and onions are translucent. Note: Use the residual fat from the sausage for flavor.
  3. Prepare the egg mixture. Lower the heat to medium low. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, smoked paprika, and garlic powder until no streaks remain.
  4. Scramble the eggs. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Use a silicone spatula to gently move the eggs around until soft curds form. Note: Remove from heat while they still look slightly wet.
  5. Cool the filling completely. Spread the egg and sausage mixture across a large baking sheet. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes until it reaches room temperature.
  6. Prep the tortillas. Microwave the tortillas for 15 to 20 seconds to make them pliable. This prevents the wheat from cracking when you roll.
  7. Assemble the burritos. Lay out a tortilla and place an even portion of the sausage egg mix, black beans, and shredded cheese in the center.
  8. Fold and roll. Tuck the sides of the tortilla inward over the filling, then roll tightly from the bottom up to create a sealed cylinder.
  9. Wrap for storage. Wrap each burrito tightly in a square of foil or parchment paper.
  10. Final pack. Place the wrapped burritos into a gallon sized freezer bag, squeeze out the air, and label with the date.
