Categories     Breakfast

Total Time 30 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 strips center cut bacon
10 large eggs (beaten)
4 scallions (chopped)
1/2 red bell pepper (diced)
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese
6 8-inch low carb flour tortillas (I used Ole Xtreme Wellness)
6 pieces Reynolds Wrap Heavy-Duty Aluminum Foil
hot sauce for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Char both sides of the tortillas on a hot griddle or over the open flame. Keep warmed in the oven if eating right away. This will help the tortillas become more pliable and also improves the taste, in my opinion.
  • Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to drain on a paper towel lined plate.
  • In a large bowl whisk the eggs with salt. Mix in scallions and bell pepper.
  • Discard the bacon grease leaving 1 teaspoon then add the eggs, let them set on the bottom then stir a few times to cook through, set aside.
  • On a clean work surface, divide a generous 1/2 cup of the egg mixture onto the bottom third of the tortilla. Top each a slice of bacon and 2 tablespoons cheese. Roll from the bottom, folding the left and right corners in toward the center and continue and roll into a tight cylinder.  Set aside, seam-side down, and repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.
  • If eating right away, heat a skillet over medium heat. When hot, spray the skillet with oil and add the burritos, seam side down. Cook, covered, until the bottom of the burritos are golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Serve with hot sauce or salsa, if desired.

Cook Time 50 minutes

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tbsp vegetable oil
25g butter
4 onions, roughly chopped
6 tbsp chicken tikka masala paste (use shop-bought or make your own – see recipe, below)
2 red peppers, deseeded and cut into chunks

150ml double cream
150ml natural yogurt
chopped coriander leaves, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the vegetable oil and butter in a large, lidded casserole on the hob, then add the onions and a pinch of salt. Cook for 15-20 mins until soft and golden.

WHAT IS FREEZER BURN AND HOW DO YOU PREVENT IT? | ALLRECIPES
Mar 29, 2021 · Keep your freezer at the proper temperature. Food freezes faster at 0 degrees F or below. The faster the freeze, the smaller the ice crystals. The smaller the ice crystals, the less susceptible the surface is to freezer burn. Don’t thaw more than once.
