These homemade Freezer Breakfast Burritos are easy to make ahead, keep well for meal prep in the freezer, and are loaded with southwest breakfast flavor, including eggs, sausage, black beans, pico de gallo, fresh cilantro, and gooey cheese.
Brown sausage until no longer pink. Reserve 1 tablespoon drippings, and drain remaining. Set sausage aside on a lined plate to catch extra grease.
To the same skillet over medium heat, add the reserved drippings.
Whisk in eggs and milk, whisking constantly until combined and cooked through.
To assemble, lay out tortillas flat.
Sprinkle on cheeses, dividing equally between the tortillas.
Then add beans, pico de gallo, cilantro, sausage, and eggs to each tortilla.
To wrap, fold in both sides. Then fold the bottom up and over the fillings. Continue rolling tightly.
To bake immediately, place burritos seam side down on a lined baking sheet and bake at 400°F for 10-12 minutes until heated through and golden on the outside.
To freeze, allow to come to room temperature. Then place seem side down on a baking sheet. Freeze for 4 hours until solid. Then wrap tightly in foil and transfer to a labeled and dated freezer bag for up to 3 to 6 months.

Notes
Pico de gallo: I prefer this simple homemade pico de gallo, but you can also use store-bought if you prefer.
Reheat in the Microwave: To reheat your burrito in the microwave, unwrap from foil and plastic wrap. Wrap in a damp (but not soaking wet) paper towel. Microwave on high for 3 minutes, or until heated through. Let rest 1 minute before unwrapping and eating.
Reheat in the Oven: To bake, leave your burrito in the foil (or unwrap from plastic AND foil, then rewrap in the foil only). Bake at 400°F for about 40 minutes. For slightly crispy edges, unwrap for the last 5-10 minutes.
Reheat in the Air Fryer or Convection Oven: To air fry or convection bake, take foil off and air fry or convection bake at 380°F for about 10 minutes, until heated through. This option will give a crispy golden exterior. For a softer exterior, leave the foil on and air fry or convection bake at 380°F for about 30 minutes. This allows the moister to stay inside the foil, keeping the tortilla soft.
