Kid Approved Breakfast Burritos

Even though my kids love a little variety in their breakfast options, they are hesitant to try anything with extras (ex. funny vegetables, onions, peppers, strange meats, you get the idea!) These little burritos are a perfect option for our always hectic mornings, offering a change from the routine with the classic taste combination of scrambled eggs and cheese, all wrapped up in a soft tortilla shell.  Now – if your kids do like a little spice in their food – you can certainly add in browned breakfast sausage or bacon as well as peppers, onions or salsa.
