recipe

  • Step 1
    Peel & dice the onion. If necessary, roughly chop the green chiles.
  • Step 2
    In a bowl, whisk the eggs together. Season with salt & pepper.
  • Step 3
    Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. When hot, add the onion, shredded hash browns & green chiles. Season with salt & pepper. Toss to combine.
  • Step 4
    Spread out the veggie mixture with a spatula & let cook without stirring for 2-3 min, or until browned. Flip & continue cooking for a few min until everything is softened. Transfer to a bowl & set aside.
  • Step 5
    Add another drizzle of oil to the same skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs & cook, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon, until scrambled.
  • Step 6
    Return the onion & hash browns to the skillet with the eggs. Mix to combine. Turn off the heat, add the cheese & cover to let melt.
  • Step 7
    Warm the flour tortilla in the microwave or in a pan over low heat for 10-15 sec. Add the cheesy egg & veggie mixture to the center of the tortilla, keeping it in a narrow line. Fold the sides inwards, over the filling. Use your thumbs to fold & tightly roll up the bottom of the burrito.
  • Step 8
    Add another drizzle of oil to the same skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the burrito seam-side down & let brown, about 30 seconds on each side. Turn off the heat.
  • Step 9
    Slice the burrito in half & serve with salsa verde (optional). Enjoy!

🥣 Batchcooking tip
