Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 2 bell peppers
  • 1 tsp oil
  • 1 pound breakfast sausage
  • 1 dozen eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2 cups cheddar cheese grated
  • 8 tsp hot sauce
  • 8 tbsp ranch dressing
  • 8 10 inch flour tortillas

Instructions
 

  • Add the rice and water to a heavy bottomed sauce pan and bring to a boil, cover, reduce the heat to low and cook 18 minutes. Remove from heat and let the rice rest 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
  • Slice the bell peppers into strips. Add the oil to a pan and cook the peppers over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, until tender and set aside.
  • In a pan, brown the sausage over medium heat until done and set aside.
  • Whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt. Melt the butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the eggs, cook until done, and set aside.
  • Lay out a tortilla and put 1/8 of the rice, peppers, sausage, eggs, and cheese slightly off center in the tortilla. Top with 1 tsp hot sauce and 1 tbsp ranch dressing. Fold the left and right sides together, leaving about an inch of space between the two sides. Fold the bottom toward the top and roll into a burrito. Repeat for the remaining 7 burritos.
  • Wrap each burrito in aluminum foil.

Notes

Flour tortillas work best because they are most pliable. 
 
Store burritos in the refrigerator for 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months. 
 
To thaw frozen burritos, refrigerate overnight.
 
To reheat, remove the aluminum foil and microwave 60 to 90 seconds. To take on the go, rewrap in the foil.
