Breakfast Taquitos

Breakfast burritos rule the roost in my house.

My husband and I cook breakfast every weekend and breakfast burritos are on the rotation more often than not.

We’ve tried every variation you can imagine. My personal favorite includes bacon, cheese, potatoes, eggs, salsa and sour cream.

I was looking for something different for breakfast the other day and found this recipe. It’s, obviously, very similar to breakfast burritos but in a much more miniature and crunchy form.

These breakfast taquitos ended up really hitting the spot. It’s hard to not eat a whole bunch of them at once!

Pro-tip: use those “street taco” sized flour tortillas for this recipe. They are the perfect size for the sausage link that fits inside of them.

Don’t forget to double dip: sour cream and salsa are a must-serve with these taquitos.

Enjoy!
