In Germany, where I live, you either eat bread or granola for breakfast. That's the thing here. I love it sometimes, but I'm more like a soup, potato and eggs, or burrito kind of girl. That's how I function best, and it sets me in the right mood for the day.
This bacon and egg breakfast burrito is one of those recipes that sets me in the perfect mood. It is very quickly made, super simple, tastes salty and fresh, and you can prepare it ahead of time- so it's the perfect meal prep recipe.
ingredients for the perfect breakfast burrito
Wraps.
All purpose flour wraps for this delicious burrito.Bacon.
High quality organic Bacon slices are the right choice.Eggs.
Organic medium sized eggs.Spinach.
You can use Baby spinach ( I personally prefer baby spinach if eaten raw) or normal spinach. The leafy green vegetable is high in insoluble fiber, folate, Iron, and Vitamins A, C, and K1. Spinach has many health benefits such as may improve eye health, oxidative stress, and cancer prevention.Tomato.
I use big juicy tomatoes, for example beefsteak tomatoes. But you are free to use your favorite tomatoes.Basil leaves.
Fresh basil leaves are needed for the dressing. The green dressing will have a slightly pesto taste and it's simply amazing.Parsley.
The fresh herb will make together with the basil leaves the basis of the dressing.Apple cider vinegar.
The healthy vinegar is an amazing choice for the dressing but you can use regular vinegar if you don`t have apple cider vinegar.Olives.
Green olives without stones for the dressing.Garlic clove.
One small garlic clove for the dressing. It will add so much flavor.Mustard.
The mustard will not dominate in the dressing. It will fit perfectly and make the dressing taste amazing.Maple syrup.
A slightly sweet touch to balance the sourness and saltyness out.Salt.
Sea salt is my favorite choice.Olive oil.
Organic virgin native olive oil.
