Sunday Make-Ahead Recipe: Breakfast Burritos

July 13, 2014 by Mr. 1500 Days 16 Comments

Mondays were always difficult for me to get going, back when I was working. (I am currently a stay at home mom, and yes, that requires effort, but I can do it in my pajamas.) Getting up after a nice weekend, getting ready to be presentable at work, AND having breakfast didn’t always happen smoothly.

Oh Yum!!!
Oh Yum!!!

We went camping with friends recently, and they took care of breakfast by providing us with breakfast burritos. Here is their recipe:

Breakfast Burritos (Makes 6)
6 eggs
1/2 cup crumbled bacon
1 potato, diced
1/4-1/2 onion, diced
1 TBSP oil
Shredded Cheese
Sour Cream
Avocado
6 Tortillas

Put oil, onion and potato in skillet on medium heat, cook until almost transluscent, about 8-12 minutes. Add crumbled bacon and cook about 2 minutes longer. Add eggs and continue cooking until eggs are set. Turn off skillet.

Warm tortillas in the microwave for about 20-30 seconds. Spoon avocado, sour cream, and cheese into tortilla, then add egg mixture. Wrap in tin foil and put into refrigerator or freezer. Voila, breakfast for a week!

    Ah, this is just what I needed! I’ve been trying to get us off of cereal every morning, and looking for ways to cut sugar at breakfast. These sound great!

      These are really easy to make, and absolutely no sugar added! Doctor them up with whatever veggies you have lying around.

      I didn’t think of beans. Good addition. I will try them next week!

    I usually will just make these made to order, but the make-ahead approach is awesome since they’re kind of labor intensive to make. Good idea!

      I considered making them to order, but in this case, everyone likes the same things. Making a couple of different batches, like substituting the bacon for sausage, or adding green peppers, would be a great way to mix things up so you aren’t eating the exact same thing every day.

    I wrap mine in parchment or waxed paper so they are microwaveable. But I guess you could just remove the foil before microwaving.

      I like this suggestion. I put it in foil, because we were taking them camping. But parchment (the gift to bakers and cooks) is a great idea! Thanks!

Freedom!

My goal was to build a portfolio of $1,000,000 by February of 2017; 1500 days from the birth of this blog (January 1, 2013). And hey look, I’ve since retired!

Investments only (primary home excluded)
1/1/13 (The Start): $586,043
1/1/14 (1 Yr Later): $869,635
1/1/15 (2 Yrs Later): $987,351
1/1/16 (3 Yrs Later): $1,057,961
1/1/17 (4 Yrs Later): $1,257,128
1/1/18 (5 Yrs Later): $1,527,701
1/1/19 (6 Yrs Later): $1,549,440
1/1/20 (7 Yrs Later): $2,035,040*
1/1/21 (8 Yrs Later): $3,379,746**
1/1/22 (9 Yrs Later): $4,762,642
1/1/23 (10 Yrs Later): $3,112,821

2023: Investments only
1/1: $3,112,821

Overall
2023 investment gains: $0
Investment gains since 1/1/2013: $2,526,778
Net worth***: $3,342,821

* The big jump between 2019 and 2020 was partly because we bought another home, but kept the previous (much more expensive) one as a rental. We have since sold it.

** Tesla.

*** Includes our primary home equity in addition to our investment portfolio.

Finally, we still have about $290,000 in mortgage debt (which I love!). No regrets about the debts!
