Method
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped bell pepper and diced onion. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the garlic powder and chili powder. Add the ground chicken sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter or oil in the same skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the whisked eggs and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are just set but still slightly moist.
- Combine the cooked sausage mixture with the scrambled eggs in the skillet. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Warm the tortillas slightly to make them pliable. Spoon the egg and sausage mixture evenly onto the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides and then roll up tightly to form burritos.
- For make-ahead: Let the burritos cool completely. Wrap each burrito individually in plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
