How To Make breakfast burrito casserole

Step 1

Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish. Cook bacon. Let cool. Chop into chunks and set aside.

Step 2

Cook sausage, breaking it up into small chunks, and set aside.
Step 3

Peel and cube potatoes. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add potatoes. Cook for about 8 minutes. Add the onions and peppers. Continue to cook until the potatoes are tender. Remove and set aside.
Step 4

Whisk all the eggs together in a bowl. Add salt and pepper. Pour into large frying pan and cook until done.
Step 5

Take one flour tortilla and lay it flat. Scoop some eggs, then some sausage, then some potato mixture, then some salsa, and lastly, some cheese.
Step 6

Roll the tortilla shut, also closing in both ends to wrap up all ingredients in the tortilla nicely. Place in casserole dish. Repeat these steps with each tortilla.
Step 7

In the blender or with a mixer, blend together the sour cream and the second tub of salsa. Pour over the burritos. Sprinkle any remaining cheese and the bacon over the top of the sauce.
Step 8

Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Cut each burrito in half, and serve... unless you are really hungry, then eat a whole one.
