This Mexican Keto Breakfast Burrito will start your day off right! Packed with fresh flavor and protein including eggs, chorizo, cheese, and a Mission® Protein Tortilla Wrap!
I’m not a huge fan of resolutions, but I do love the fresh start that a new year gives us! This year feels like a very welcome new beginning, and I am focusing on building and continuing better habits in the New Year. One of my new habits is tracking my protein intake and starting my day with a protein-centric breakfast! To support this habit, I’m meal prepping my breakfast ahead of time and making freezer friendly meals like these Mexican Keto Breakfast Burritos with Mission® Protein Tortilla Wraps.
These Mexican Keto Breakfast Burritos have all my favorite flavors! Each burrito is filled with soft scrambled eggs, spicy Mexican chorizo, Mexican blend cheese, and then wrapped in a plant powered protein tortilla by Mission® Foods. These breakfast burritos have super fresh flavors thanks to the fresh vegetables inside, diced tomato, onion, cilantro, and lime juice. Simple and perfect!
For the tortilla wrap, I used Mission® Protein Tortilla Wraps. These tortillas are vegan and loaded with 7 grams of plant protein! These wraps are a good source of protein meaning they contain high quality protein. One serving of their pea protein provides 10% of the recommended daily value and is full of essential nutrients and amino acids to fuel an active lifestyle. They’re also high in fiber and have no sugar. For those on the Keto plan, or those just watching their carbs, these tortillas are perfect! They only have 3 grams of net carbs per tortilla. I love to have them on hand for “Better Choices Made Easy!”
Whether you’re working on a resolution or not, remember that any day is a good day to start making better choices! Mission® has a wide variety of tortillas that are better for you, so you can have tasty, filling meals while still meeting your goals.
How to Freeze Breakfast Burritos
These Chorizo Breakfast Burritos are easy to freeze for on-the-go breakfasts! Once assembled:
- Wrap each burrito in aluminum foil.
- Add burritos to a gallon-sized freeze bag, and seal. Freeze.
- To reheat, place the frozen burrito in the refrigerator overnight to thaw.
- Remove the aluminum foil and microwave for 2 minutes, or until heated through.
I hope that this easy Keto Mexican Breakfast Burrito recipe helps you achieve your goals this year! If you love it, or make any tasty modifications to the recipe, just let me know in the comments.
