Method
- Preheat the oven and bake tater tots according to package directions. You need 40 tots (4 per burrito), so you will have leftovers if you use the full pound.
- Place a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the breakfast sausage, stirring to break it up and crumble. Cook until the meat is cooked through, about 7 minutes. Remove the cooked sausage to a paper towel-lined plate and set it aside.
- While the sausage cooks, place a separate large skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the olive oil, bell pepper, and onion; saute until the vegetables are tender, stirring often, about 6 minutes.
- While the vegetables and meat are cooking, place the eggs in a medium bowl and whisk them well.
- Pour the eggs into the large skillet with the peppers and onions and push them around with a spatula as they cook. Cook until the eggs are set, about 3-5 minutes.
- Gently fold the cooked sausage into the cooked eggs mixture. Remove the skillet from the heat and allow the mixture to cool for about 10 minutes.
- To prepare the tortillas, wrap them in damp paper towels and microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them pliable.
- For burrito assembly, scoop about 1 cup measure of the egg-sausage-veggie mixture into the center of each tortilla. Add 4 tater tots and about 1 to 2 tablespoons of cheese. Fold one edge of the tortilla up and over the filling and pull it tightly toward the center. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and continue to roll. Place the wrapped burritos on a baking sheet while you assemble the rest.
- To prepare burritos for the freezer, wrap each burrito in a sheet of parchment paper and then wrap again in a square sheet of aluminum foil. Label the burritos and place them in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Notes
For gluten-free options, use Siete grain-free tortillas. Heat each tortilla in a skillet to make it pliable before filling one at a time. This works well with two people: one person heating each tortilla and the other adding the fillings and rolling.
For dairy-free preparation, omit the cheese or use dairy-free shreds.
