Equipment

  • 1 Large Pan

Ingredients
  

  • 6 Whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 Shallot finely minced
  • 1.5 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 Medium Russet Potato diced
  • 6 Pasture Raised Eggs
  • ¼ Cup Cheddar Cheese
  • ¾ Teaspoon Salt
  • ½ Teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder

Instructions
 

  • Start by dicing your potato and placing it into a small bowl with water and some salt to soak as you prepare the rest of your ingredients.
  • Mince your shallot and set aside.
  • Crack all your eggs into another separate small bowl and whisk until everything is well combined.
  • On medium high heat, add ½ tablespoon of olive oil into a pan. Add your potatoes and season with ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper and ½ teaspoon of garlic powder. Sautée your potatoes for 5-7 minutes. Then add 2 tbs of water, stir and then cover for an additional 3-4 minutes. Add your other ½ tbs of olive oil and cook until the potatoes are fork tender.
  • Remove your potatoes from the pan when cooked through. Lower your heat a bit to medium. Add ½ tbs of olive oil and then add your minced shallots. Cook until they are translucent. Add your whisked eggs to the pan. Season with an additional ¼ teaspoon of salt, ¼ teaspoon of pepper and ½ teaspoon of garlic powder. Stirring often to prevent burning. Cook your eggs until the liquid is gone being careful not to overcook or dry out your eggs too much. Remove from heat and then add ¼ cup of shredded sharp shedder cheese. I used the Tillamook brand, but you're welcome to use your favorite. Stir until the cheese begins to melt in with the eggs. Add your potatoes back in the pan and mix until everything is well combined.
  • Grab a whole wheat tortilla, add about ⅙ of the egg mixture and roll into a little burrito. Repeat until you have 6 burritos.
  • Add some store bought or homemade salsa into small containers for dipping and package along with your packed burrito and there you have it!

Notes

Hint: Make sure to cook your potatoes until they are fork tender. The potatoes typically take a little more time to cook, but be patient, it's worth the wait!
