  • 1/2 cup shredded pepper Jack cheese (2 oz)

Steps

    In 10-inch nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add bell peppers and onions; cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are just tender, stirring occasionally.
  • 2
    In medium bowl, mix eggs, milk, salt and pepper; beat well.
  • 3
    Pour egg mixture over vegetables in skillet. Reduce heat to medium; cook 1 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until eggs are set but still moist.

    To serve, spoon egg mixture onto warm tortillas; sprinkle with cheese. Roll up each tortilla tightly to secure filling. (Fold bottom of each tortilla 1 inch over filling. Fold sides in, overlapping to enclose filling. Fold top over sides.)

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Cooking Vegetarian? Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is vegetarian. Products and ingredient sources can change.
  • tip 2
    Can’t take the heat? Opt for shredded plain Monterey Jack cheese instead of pepper Jack.
  • tip 3
    Make this bell pepper breakfast burrito your own! Experiment with other fresh veggies instead of the bell peppers, or use finely chopped white onion instead of green onions.
  • tip 4
    For spicier vegetarian breakfast burritos, top with thinly sliced fresh jalapeño peppers.
