Make Ahead Breakfast Burritos

-

People ask how I cook/feed six kids.  I bulk up a lot of our meals to make what we we do have stretch.  This is one of the recipes I stretch. Breakfast burritos are a great way to meal prep and keep frozen for those times you and your family are on the morning go or just need something hot for breakfast.  Wrap individually in parchment paper after assembly then stick them in the freezer for a later date.  You can pop them in the microwave for 45-60 seconds and have a hot in seconds.
 and hearty meal in seconds.
