Our daughter-in-law started a breakfast tradition when we visited, and it has transformed into this breakfast burrito that has crushed nacho chips in it along with eggs, potatoes, and cheese. This is just as good without the tortilla, just serve it in a bowl.

This recipe is SO good! My 4 year old loved it and my husband suggested making another batch and freezing the burritos so we could have them for easy to heat breakfasts. I only made a couple of tweaks and it would have still been delicious without, but I added just a little extra potato and cooked up some breakfast sausages in the pan first and then sliced and added them in at the end. I ate mine without the tortilla and it was still amazing! Read More

The flavor was good but they were pretty dry. I did include some cooked sausage as suggested by another reviewer. We tried topping them with more cheese and some sour cream and that was helpful. Read More

Really easy and makes a lot. On busy evenings I like to throw a couple of skillets of this together and let my six kids go at it. Thanks for the recipe! Read More
