Breakfast, ole!

I am religious follower of Lifehacker, which has brought much technological goodness into our lives (i.e. boxee, how to create a laser out of a mini-flashlight, etc.). They do also have some awesome general productivity advice and life hacks (get it?). This year they have fairly consistently had great content on food and nutrition.

While the recipe I use for these breakfast burritos comes out of the Radomski family classic How to Cook Everything Vegetarian, the idea to take this four serving recipe and extrapolate it into a full on assembly line effort was all Lifehacker (yes, Lifehacker reads Mark Bittman, as should you).


There are several variations on the base recipe. We start with a ton of scrambled eggs and usually refried beans, which are surprisingly easy to make from scratch. For this production we also have pickled jalapenos, cilantro, tomatoes, spinach, and summer squash.


Usually when I make these I do no less than 10 and freeze most of them. They freeze surprisingly well. I had Jon to help, so we upped our game and ended up with about 25. The process goes much faster with two people.
Here is the finished array of burrito goodness:
