How to Make Terri's Spicy Egg Burritos

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and pour in the egg mixture.
  3. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are set but still slightly moist, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. While the eggs are cooking, warm the tortillas according to package directions. You can heat them in a dry skillet, microwave, or oven.
  5. Shred the cheese. If using, dice the onions, peppers, and jalapeños.
  6. Spread a thin layer of salsa (or your preferred sauce) on each tortilla.
  7. Spoon a generous portion of the scrambled eggs onto the center of each tortilla.
  8. Top with shredded cheese, and any desired veggies.
  9. Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy! Optional: serve with sour cream or guacamole.
