Advice

Making a breakfast burrito is a great way to start the day, and it can be made quickly and easily. To make a delicious breakfast burrito, start by heating a large tortilla in a skillet over medium heat. Then add any desired fillings, such as scrambled eggs, cooked bacon, shredded cheese, and diced peppers. Once the fillings are added, fold the tortilla in half and press down to ensure the fillings are well-enclosed. Finally, cook the burrito until it's crispy and golden brown on both sides. Enjoy your delicious breakfast burrito!
