I guess you'd call this OAMC......I've kind of modified it to suit my tastes, but you can put anything in these, or adjust the quanities. Soemtimes, I'll use ham, too

1/2 lb bacon
12 ounces of jimmy dean reduced-fat sausage

Crumble the bacon.

Easy and Excellent! I used the jimmy dean sausage skillet pre-packaged and added eggs and cheese and omitted the bacon. My husband can take it frozen to work and pop it in the micro. Thanks for posting.

Exactly what I was looking for. Yummy with a few slices of Kraft Singles cheese in it. I used one can of Mild Rotell, drained, and plenty of salt and pepper. I also add salsa and hot sauce directly to the mixture, instead of each individual burrito. LOVE this with ham!

Awesome! I made these to store for my sons before school breakfasts. They were actually very easy to make. And the taste is great. I didn't use the chilis because he doesn't like them, and used a full pound of bacon and o'brian potatoes. I snuck eating one before putting the rest into the freezer... very tasty! I know he will love them. Thanks! BTW, make sure you have a HUGE pan to make these in. I was having a bit of trouble stirring all those eggs in my standard 24 inch skillet, which is 4 inches deep.

This is a great idea. My husband and I are constantly grabbing breakfast on the run. We decided that we were spending way to much money on eating out and this was the perfect solution. We can still eat on the run without it costing an arm and a leg. I used about 28oz. of o'brien potatoes, a whole lb. of bacon and added 2 cans of rotel instead of the green chilies and salsa. The recipe made approx. 2 dozen VERY large burritos. One is just the perfect size for us. When I figured up the price per burrito, it was only .60 each. A lot better and cheaper than fast food!! Thank you for the money saving idea!!!
