Ingredients
- 10 oz. uncured bacon sliced in quarters
- 5 organic eggs
- ½ cup pinto beans recipe below (or just use canned and drained pinto beans)
- ½ cup shredded gouda cheese
- 6 organic flour tortillas
- ¼ cup tomatillo salsa store-bought or homemade (recipe below)
Doctored Pinto Beans:
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ½ medium yellow onion diced
- 4-5 garlic cloves chopped
- 1 medium jalapeño chopped
- 4 cups canned pinto beans drained
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Tomatillo Salsa:
- 12 medium tomatillos
- 1 medium jalapeño
- 2 garlic cloves
- ½ medium white onion
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Make the Tomatillo Salsa: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add tomatillos, jalapeño, and garlic. Cook until black and blistered, about 10-15 minutes. Transfer roasted vegetables to a blender with onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth.
- Make the Pinto Beans: Heat olive oil in a skillet. Add onion, garlic, and jalapeño. Cook until soft. Add beans, cumin, salt, and cayenne. Mash the beans partially. Cook until thickened.
- Cook the Bacon: Heat a large sauté pan. Add bacon pieces to the hot pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Scramble the Eggs: While bacon cooks, scramble eggs in a bowl on the side.
- Sauté the Eggs: Once bacon is finished cooking, remove ¾ of the bacon grease from the pan. Add scrambled eggs to the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes.
- Warm the Beans: Stir in beans to warm them.
- Assemble the Burrito: Crumble the bacon and assemble your burritos with the eggs, beans, cheese, and tortillas. Drizzle with tomatillo salsa.
- Optional: Add a little hot sauce for an extra kick.
