These versatile Gluten Free and Dairy Free Breakfast Burritos are the perfect meal prep recipe. They're super easy to customize and full of so much flavor. You really can't go wrong with this make ahead, delicious, on the go breakfast idea. 

Who would like an easy pull-out-of-the-freezer breakfast idea? And what if we told you this meal is loaded with your classic favorites… scrambled eggs, breakfast sausage, sautéed onions and peppers, and even diced potatoes?

Thankfully breakfast burritos not only contain all our breakfast favorites, but they are also ready in minutes!

Thankfully a friend peaked my interest with this breakfast idea a few years ago.

Can you believe I had never heard of these, let alone tried one? And in the past couple years I've finally found gluten free tortillas these taste dreamy in and don't fall into a million pieces.

So many tortillas just fall apart when you wrap up the burritos. That's not the case with the gluten free Mission brand tortillas we prefer using. I find these in many big chain grocery stores and on Amazon.

how do you keep a breakfast burrito from getting soggy?

One of the biggest questions we had when making a burrito is, how do you keep all the yummy goodies inside without letting the whole burrito get soggy? 

And this question is super popular when we are talking about making this as a meal prep recipe.

If you're making freezer burritos, this is a popular thing to worry about.

But here are our tips to help keep your breakfast taco in perfect edible condition. 

It''s all about knowing how to store and reheat your burritos properly. It's all about knowing how to store and reheat your burritos properly. 

If eating now, let the filling cool down some and roll tightly to help keep out moisture. 

If using as a meal prep recipe, or a freezer meal recipe:

1. Let your filling ingredients cool to room temperature.
2. Warm your gluten free tortilla for 20 seconds in the microwave.
3. Place the filling inside.
4. Wrap in your tortilla. 
5. Then wrap with aluminum foil. 
6. To help get a crispy tortilla when reheating, use a toaster oven or oven for reheating.
7. Otherwise we reheat in the microwave and top with salsa and dairy free sour cream.

what do you serve with breakfast burritos?

While these can be a meal by themselves, you can also choose to serve them with other items. Try some of these ideas: 

• Fruit display (get an idea from our dessert charcuterie board)
• Sweet Potato Breakfast Bowls (heck, you could even put this as a filling variation!)
• Fruit Pizza 

how long are burritos for breakfast good for?

If your burritos last longer than ours, or you're making a big batch like we like to do, you can keep them in the refrigerator for 3-4 days if stored properly. 

If you want to freeze them, they'll last about 3-4 months if stored properly in the freezer. Again, let contents cool, use aluminum foil and then we put in a freezer safe Gallon size Ziploc bag to help keep them from getting freezer burned. 

Always remember to label your food with the date you made it, what it is and the date you need to eat it by.
