How to Make Turkey Breakfast Burritos

  1. Warm 1 cup of shredded leftover turkey in a small frying pan over medium heat.
  2. Add 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper and 1 teaspoon ground cumin to the turkey. Mix well.
  3. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
  4. In the same pan, whisk 2 large eggs with a splash of milk or water.
  5. Add the egg mixture to the turkey and cook, stirring frequently, until the eggs are fully scrambled and cooked through (about 3-5 minutes). Add a tablespoon of water if the mixture appears too dry.
  6. Remove the turkey and egg mixture from the pan and set aside in a bowl.
  7. Warm 4 large flour tortillas (or your preferred type) according to package directions.
  8. Fill each tortilla with approximately 1/4 cup of the turkey and egg mixture, 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your favorite blend), and 1 tablespoon of your favorite salsa.
  9. Fold the tortillas in half or roll them up tightly to secure the filling.
  10. Toast the wrapped burritos in the same frying pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the tortillas are warm, slightly crispy, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  11. Enjoy your delicious and easy Turkey Breakfast Burritos!
