Ingredients

6 flour tortillas burrito size, 8 inch or larger
2 hatch chili peppers roasted and chopped or use bell pepper
8 slices bacon cut into 1” pieces
1 medium sweet onion chopped
1 cup Mexican cheese
8 large eggs
1 ½ tsp kosher salt divided
4 tbsp cilantro chopped
1 avocado pitted and sliced
1 tomato chopped, optional

Instructions

Preheat the pan to medium heat, add bacon and cook until crispy, about 3 mins. Remove bacon to a plate. Save bacon fat, remove 2 tablespoons of bacon fat for eggs.
In the remaining bacon fat, sauté the onions and ½ teaspoon of salt until translucent, about 3 mins. Add hatch chilies and cook for another 2 mins.
In a bowl add eggs, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 4 tablespoons of cold water, whisk until frothy. Add eggs to a pan with remaining bacon fat or use some butter to cook on low heat.
Add cheese to the eggs halfway while cooking. Using a rubber spatula, slowly scrape the pan across, back and forth, repeat this until the eggs are nice and fluffy and cheese is melted.
To assemble the burritos, add eggs to the shells, then bacon, onion, and hatch chilies, avocado, tomatoes, and cilantro.
Tightly wrap the burritos closed.
Optional, add the burritos to a pan to crisp up. Serve with salsa or hot sauce.
