I made 10 healthy breakfast burritos from one tray

I love burritos cause there’s so many flavors all coming together! But this is also why I never make them – there’s so many ingredients and pots, and it takes a lot of time.

But then I discovered this ONE TRAY METHOD, which changed everything cause I can just cook everything on this one tray and make 10 healthy burritos to keep in my freezer.

And I actually love the reheated version even more – it’s so crispy! It makes amazing meal prep, and a great high protein breakfast for busy mornings!

How do I do it on one tray? I do it with simple layers:

• I always start with the vegetables – that’s layer one
• Then get the meat on for layer 2
• And layer 3 and 4 are just eggs and cheese. That’s it

Hope you enjoy the easy recipe below!

16 oz lean ground beef, broken up and tossed with seasoning:

Layer 3: Bake at 350F / 176C for 15-20 min

Mix and pour on top:

• 10 egg whites

Layer 4: Add last 5 minutes (when egg layer has 5 min left in oven)

• Top with 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese

Heating a stack of tortillas

• Stack 10 burrito sized tortillas together and wrap tightly in foil
• Bake at 350F / 176 C for 15-20 min (add in with layer 3)

Optional sauce ingredients:

• 5 tbsp light mayonnaise
• 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (chopped) + 1 tsp sauce
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• Smoked paprika
• Cumin 
• Salt and pepper

How to put the final burritos together:

• Let baked burrito filling set for 10 min before slicing
• Add baked burrito filling to tortilla with chopped cilantro / baby spinach and sauce

Calories: Roughly 400 cal per burrito

Protein: About 25g per burrito

Ingredient subs:

• It’s easy to replace wheat tortillas with gluten-free tortillas
• It’s easy to replace the cheese with dairy-free cheese

How to reheat:

You can reheat your burrito any way to like (even from freezer straight to microwave!)

But for the best texture with a crispy tortilla shell, here’s what I like to do:

• Defrost in the fridge overnight
• Air fry at 360 for 15-20 minutes (I just use the air fry setting on my toaster oven, and keep an eye on it so the tortilla doesn’t burn)
