Breakfast burrito.
I don’t have potatoes for breakfast very often. My excuses are that it’s a pain in the ass, it’s too much work, it takes too long… but none of those are really true. If you start the entire process by turning on the pan, it’s hot by the time the potatoes are cubed. And then, after you start them in the pan, by the time you’ve chopped some onion and pepper, and added some bacon, they’re soft enough so that everything will get done about the same time. The whole thing takes what, 5 minutes to here? Then I can do everything else while these fry up.
I seasoned the potatoes with Heaven Made’s “It’s Incredible” seasoning, their all purpose rub. The more I use their products, the more I am impressed by them! Highly recommended.
While all that was sitting off to the side doing its magic, I prepped the burrito with some puréed avocado and tomatoes.

I also added cheese, salsa, and crema, but I forgot to take the photo. (Honestly one of the main reasons I take all these breakfast photos is to keep working on my photo skillz. Right now I have a weird white balance thing going on in the kitchen, and I’m trying to work it out; the countertop lights are multi-warmth LED, the stove hood lights are halogen. The overhead lights are LED bulbs, and then there’s the natural light through the window. I’m trying to get it close with the in-camera settings rather than shoot raw and adjust in the software, that way I can keep everything on the iPad and avoid the laptop.)
The taters are done! I can add in the eggs:

No sticking on that Stargazer cast iron!
On to my burrito. You can see the cheese, salsa, and crema that I forgot to shoot.

This is going to be one hell of a burrito. Good thing I’ve gotten really good at tucking and rolling these things.
Order up! One excellent breakfast burrito!
