Tips

  • For a lower calorie option, use ground turkey sausage and egg whites. Low-carb tortillas can also be used.
  • The burritos can be stored in the refrigerator or in the freezer in a tightly sealed bag or wrapped in plastic wrap/aluminum foil.. When reheating, microwave for 1-minute intervals until heated through out.
  • If the sausage you buy ends up containing more or less than four ¼ cups, just divide accordingly to make 4 evenly distributed burritos.
