Breakfast Burritos with Tabasco Verde
I have made this a million times and LOVE it! It is a recipe I found on an insert that came in the box with a bottle of Green Tabasco™ sauce. That should tell you how long I've had it. I do not believe they come in boxes anymore! Green Tabasco sauce has a very different flavor from traditional red. It has less heat and more flavor! When making this recipe, make sure to use Green Tabasco or other mild green chili sauce. One small tip that makes this a great recipe for traveling is that you can buy 6.5 ounce cans of ham, the size of a tuna can, and use 1 can in this recipe.
Ingredients
4 flour tortillas
3/4 cup fresh tomatoes, diced
2 Tablespoons green Tabasco™ sauce
6 eggs
1/3 cup scallions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup ham, diced
1 Tablespoon butter
salt and pepper
1/2 cup Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese, shreddedDirections
Combine tomatoes and 1 Tablespoon green Tabasco sauce. Set aside. Melt butter in frying pan. In a bowl beat eggs then add scallions, ham, salt and pepper. When butter is melted, add eggs and cook until partially done. Add tomato mix and cook until done. Spoon into flour tortilla and garnish with additional green Tabasco and shredded cheese.
Meanwhile, heat tortillas. Tortillas can be heated several ways. Wrap them in foil and heat in a 350F oven for 10 minutes or so. You can also wrap them in paper towels sprinkled with a tiny bit of water and heat them in the microwave for 30 seconds however; neither of these methods are necessarily practical when RVing. The easiest way to heat a flour tortilla is to drop it directly on your heat source for a few seconds and then flip it over for an additional few seconds. This works with a gas flame, an electric burner and a wood or charcoal fire. If they blacken a bit in the process, not to worry, it only enhances their flavor! ENJOY!
