Mornings can be busy, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice a satisfying breakfast. Frozen breakfast burritos step up their game and offer a quick, easy way to start the day\u2014packed with eggs, protein, and bold flavors that really deliver. To find out which ones are best for your fridge space, Eat This, Not That! asked chefs to share their top picks.<\/p>\n
Red’s Meat Lovers Breakfast Burrito<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p>\nThe target<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nRed’s Meat Lovers Breakfast Burrito combines great flavor, better ingredients, and convenience in a way that stands out from the frozen scene. It’s a favorite of Melanie Portman, chef and recipe developer for Droolrecipes.com. “What sold me on this was the texture of the egg \u2014 they actually stayed fluffy after reheating, which is surprisingly rare in frozen burritos,” he says. The filling is cage-free scrambled eggs, antibiotic-free pork sausage, uncooked applewood smoked bacon, and a combination of white cheddar cheese, pepper jack, and mozzarella.\u201d According to Chef Melanie, “Every bite has all the nutrients instead of those dead tortilla parts you get with cheap brands. A jar of chili provides a subtle kick that builds as you eat.” He adds, “At 15 grams of protein in a 5-ounce burrito, the tortilla’s filling ratio is one of the best I’ve seen in the freezer.”<\/p>\n
El Monterey Signature Egg, Sausage, Cheese and Potato Burritos<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p>\nWalmart<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nEl Monterey Signature Egg, Sausage, Cheese and Potato Burritos are easy, satisfying, and reliable. According to Emma Sullivan, home cook and recipe developer at DailyCookingRecipe.com, these are the best frozen burritos you can buy. He says: “You can get eight burritos for about $6.50, each filled with egg, sausage, cheese, and potatoes. Sullivan explains, “The tortilla sticks together and doesn’t go in the microwave, which sounds basic but a lot of brands can’t manage it.” He adds, \u201cLess than two and a half minutes from fridge to fridge. My kids catch them before school and I don’t feel bad about it.”<\/p>\n\n5 Chain Restaurants With the Best Blakfast Breakfast Burritos, According to the Chefs<\/span><\/p>\n<\/aside>\nRed’s All Natural Chicken Chorizo \u200b\u200bEgg and Cheese<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p>\nThe target<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nRed’s All Natural Chicken Chorizo \u200b\u200bEgg and Cheese offers a great-tasting, high-quality twist on a frozen breakfast with clean ingredients. “This is an improvement choice,” Sullivan said. The burrito has cage-free eggs, antibiotic-free chicken, three types of cheese (white cheddar, chili jack, and mozzarella), and real chorizo \u200b\u200bseasoning with paprika and rosemary.\u201d He explains, “You can actually taste the spices. 16 grams of protein and nothing done.” Sullivan adds, “At $2.39 each, it’s more expensive than El Monterey, but you get a whole different level of burrito.”<\/p>\n
EVOL Egg and Green Chile Burrito<\/span><\/h2>\nKroger<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe EVOL Egg and Green Chile Burrito strikes the perfect balance between bold flavor, satisfying texture, and quality ingredients that feel more thoughtful than most frozen breakfast options. “The green chile is what sets this one apart from every other frozen breakfast burrito on the road,” says Sullivan. “Scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, pinto beans, cheddar, and a real kick of green chile stew.” He adds, “At 6 ounces, it’s the largest burrito on this list. The beans add fiber and keep you full at lunch, which most breakfast burritos don’t.”6254a4d1642c605c54bf1cab17d50f1e<\/span><\/p>\nAmy’s Tofu Scramble Breakfast Wrap<\/span><\/h2>\nThe target<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nAmy’s Kitchen delivers simple, delicious meals made with organic, plant-forward ingredients that feel healthier and more thoughtfully designed than many conventional frozen options. The Tofu Scramble Breakfast Wrap is a vegan and gluten-free option that doesn’t compromise on taste. “The filling is mushroom-forward with organic tofu, hash browns, zucchini, and onions,” Sullivan explains. “What surprised me was how well the gluten-free tortilla held together.” He says. “Most gluten-free wraps fall apart the second you put them in the microwave, but this one doesn’t.” Sullivan adds, “I keep a few in the freezer when I have guests with dietary restrictions, and I don’t want to scramble at the last minute. Throw one in the air fryer, and you have a delicious meal in minutes.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
