Why You Should Try It
Simple then variety. There’s the addition of sliced ham option too, and then there’s the combo flavor (adults palette) usually with diced onions sauteed which if added will be the new first step.
This recipe is not going to use up the whole pack of franks. Which is awesome because how often are you really eating hot dogs for burritos that regularly. Let’s mix the ideas and switch up meals up a bit for max flavor!
Ingredients
Grocery Quick List: eggs, weenies, butter, flour tortillas, and pepper.
- 4 Eggs
- 3 Hot dog franks
- 1 teaspoon Butter
- 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 Flour tortillas or 6 tacos
Extras: ripe avocado, shredded cheddar cheese, ketchup
Ingredient Notes / Variations
- Eggs – fresh eggs, cold. Don’t pull them out until ready to cook.
- If using farm fresh at room temp, pre-whisk cause they’re gonna cook faster than if refrigerated.
- Weenies – there are lots of packaged hot dog varieties; like chicken, turkey, or beef. We make this most often with standard size turkey-dogs.
- If using Jumbo Franks, use 1 less weenie than the recipe calls for.
- Slice rounds medium-thin to thin.
- Don’t have weenies on deck? make my Papas con Huevo recipe.
- Butter – salted or unsalted both are fine.
- Black Pepper is essential in my recipe scramble for me because I love the kick of flavor from peppered eggs. It is my recommendation.
- Flour tortillas – standard 8 inch flour tortilla for burritos, or 5 inch tortillas for tacos.
Step-By-Step Instructions
How to Make the Eggs with Weenies for Burritos
- Have all ingredients nearby and prepped, don’t forget the pepper.
- Warm the pan and place sliced hot dog franks to warm then add the butter.
- Once the butter melts add the eggs and let them cook for about a minute before beginning to scramble. This gives them a minute to fluff up.
