If you have to hit the road in a hurry every morning to make it to work on time or even just to get the kids out the door you know how tough it can be to provide your family with a warm filling breakfast. These Easy Sausage Burritos are not only perfect for making ahead and freezing for quick freezer breakfasts, but they are healthier than the versions you grab at the drive thru on your way to work. I like to make a large batch like this for those mornings we are all in a hurry to get out the door but still want that home cooked meal.

These great Easy Sausage Burritos can be lightened in calories by using egg whites versus regular eggs and 2% cheese over traditional cheeses. Not only are they healthier than fast food choices, but they are chock full of flavor and much less expensive. If wrapped and stored properly these are great for up to 3 months in the freezer. Make large batches for easy on the go breakfasts for your entire family. To heat, remove aluminum foil leaving wrapped in plastic wrap. Place on microwave safe plate and heat for 1 minute on medium. Remove plastic wrap and heat 1 minute on high. Serve with salsa.
