Breakfast Before Bed Burritos [The Late-Night Lifesaver]
We’ve all been there — it’s been one of those nights. Maybe you’ve been out with friends, maybe the gathering went a little longer than planned, or maybe you just stayed up binging your favorite show. Either way, you find yourself in that magical in-between moment: too late for dinner, too early for breakfast… and starving.
Enter: Breakfast Before Bed Burritos. These are the hero of the after-hours kitchen, the meal that saves the night (and sometimes the next morning). They’re also perfect for a grab-and-go breakfast before work — so yes, you have my permission to keep these stocked in your fridge at all times.
What You’ll Need
(A.K.A. the “always keep these in your kitchen” list)
Mission Protein Tortillas – my ride-or-die. Soft, satisfying, and they somehow just hit different.
Eggs – scrambled is easiest, but you do you.
Cheese – shredded is the way to go for that perfect melt.
Turkey Bacon – because crispy is the vibe.
Pico de Gallo or Salsa – optional, but adds freshness.
Melinda’s Black Truffle Hot Sauce – non-negotiable. This is the drool-worthy, flavor-packing finishing touch.
How to Make Them
Crisp the turkey bacon in a skillet until golden and perfect.
Scramble your eggs right in the same pan so they soak up all that smoky bacon flavor.
Warm your tortilla (trust me, it makes a difference).
Layer it up – eggs, turkey bacon, shredded cheese, pico if you’re feeling it.
Drizzle generously with Melinda’s Black Truffle Hot Sauce.
Roll, fold, and chow down like the late-night champ you are.
Host Mode Tip:
Prep a batch of Breakfast Before Bed Burritos ahead of time and freeze them individually. Wrap each one in foil, then pop them into a freezer bag. When the night calls for emergency carbs, just heat in the oven or air fryer — no dishes, no stress, all flavor.
