Making Breakfast Burritos
This only take a few minutes to whip up making them perfect for those busy mornings!
Grab a non-stick skillet and over medium-high heat add the olive oil. Once heated, saute the chopped peppers and green onions until crisp-tender, about 2-3 minutes. Stir occasionally.
Meanwhile, beat the milk, eggs, salt, and pepper in a medium sized bowl with a fork or whisk.
Pour the eggs over the sautéed veggies and cook, stirring until the eggs are set but still moist or about 4-6 minutes.
Once the eggs are done, spoon the mixture into each tortilla, add some shredded cheese and roll up the tortilla.
