Ingredients
3 T oil
3 c potato cubes boiled
1 1/4 c diced onion
1 1/4 c diced red pepper
2 4 oz can green chilies
1 1/2 c chopped deli honey ham (sliced thin)
1/2 c minced cilantro
14 beaten eggs
1/3 c milk
1/2 t salt
2 T butter
2 c shredded cheddar cheese
2 c Jalapeno cheese shredded
8 - 10” flour tortillas heated in skillet until soft
Instructions
Boil potatoes in salted water for about 10 minutes or until cooked, but not soft. Drain.
Heat a large non-stick skillet with 3 T of oil. Add the onions and peppers and potatoes and cook while stirring as needed, until potatoes are a touch golden. Stir in the ham and half of the green chiles and cook 1 minute. Set aside.
Combine the eggs, milk and ½ t salt and beat until mixed. Heat 2 T butter in large non-stick skillet over medium heat. (You should probably use 2 skillets for this.) Add the eggs and cook until mostly set. Before eggs are thoroughly cooked, stir in the other half green chiles and the cilantro.
Let eggs cool. Tear 8 squares of foil and set up an assembly line. Place a room temperature tortilla on each square or heat in a dry pan until pliable and top with 3 T of cheese. Top that with 1/2 c of potato mixture and then top that with about ¼ c of scrambled eggs.
Roll up like an egg roll. Then roll the burrito in the foil the same way. Slice in half on the diagonal before serving. Keep warm in a 300 degree oven or freeze. To cook frozen, unwrap burrito and place it in a damp paper towel and heat it in the microwave for 1 to 2.5 minutes until warm. Can also be heated wrapped in a 350 oven for 15 minutes.
