If you love a breakfast burrito, you will love this warm, bubbly baked version that gets topped with sour cream and salsa. Consider it a Tex-Mex spin on a Western omelet that is brimming with fillings: eggs, pepper, tomato, garlic, cheese and cilantro. You don't have to stop there either. Feel free to load up on the vegetables. Add minced fresh jalapeño, corn, black or pinto beans, even a bit of diced red onion to the filling. Garnish with some cubed avocado to serve. Enjoy this with an iced Mexican-style horchata. Simply stir 8 ounces oat milk with ice, a pinch of ground cinnamon (or pumpkin pie spice), and a 1/4 teaspoon vanilla or almond extract.
