Ingredients
- Bacon — 100g, short cut, diced
- Sausage — 4 extra lean beef sausages, sliced
- Onion — 1 white onion, diced
- Brown sugar sweetener — 1 tsp (optional, to caramelise onions faster)
- Egg — 8, whisked
- Salt — a pinch (to season eggs after cooking)
- Tortilla — 4 low-calorie wraps
- Low-fat cheese — 120g (30g per burrito)
- Spring onion — diced, for topping (optional)
- Sriracha hot sauce — to taste, for topping (optional)
Directions
- 1
Cook the diced bacon in a pan over high heat until crispy, then set aside.
- 2
In the same pan, cook the sliced sausages until browned and slightly crispy, then set aside too.
- 3
Add the diced onion to the pan and sprinkle over the brown sugar sweetener if using — it helps them caramelise faster and adds a touch of sweetness. Cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until nicely browned.
- 4
Remove the onion and reduce the heat to low–medium. Add the whisked eggs and gently stir every 30 seconds or so for about 5 minutes, keeping the heat low to get fluffy, soft curds. Season with salt once done.
- 5
Warm the tortillas in a pan for about 30 seconds on each side to make them more pliable.
- 6
Divide the bacon, sausage, onion and eggs evenly across all 4 tortillas.
- 7
Top each with 30g of cheese, a scatter of spring onion and a drizzle of sriracha if you like. Roll tightly into burritos and serve.
