Every thing about BREAKFAST BURRITOS | Vahrehvah :

Breakfast burrito is a variety of American breakfast and is composed of different breakfast items wrapped inside a flour tortilla with green chili. This style was invented and popularized in different regional American cuisines; most notably New Mexican cuisine, Southwestern cuisine, and Tex-Mex. Breakfast burritos offer all the advantages of a hearty, warm breakfast but have the added benefit of on-the-go portability. The classic version, made with scrambled eggs, beans, cheese, salsa and sour cream, is hard to beat, but it’s just one way to bundle your breakfast. These seven ideas push breakfast burrito boundaries to include a variety of irresistible ingredient combinations from roasted tomatoes with pesto and Parmesan to bacon, avocado and jalapeño. All of these burritos make for a filling and fortifying way to start your day, but they’d be just as satisfying for lunch or dinner. Each recipe makes four single-serving burritos, but feel free to scale the quantities up or down as needed.

The name burrito possibly derives from the appearance of a rolled up wheat tortilla, which vaguely resembles the ear of its namesake animal, or from bedrolls and packs that donkeys carried. Mexican popular tradition tells the story of a man named Juan Mendez who used to sell tacos in a street stand, using a donkey as a transport for himself and the food, during the Mexican Revolution period (1910–1921) in the Bella Vista neighborhood in Ciudad Juárez. To keep the food warm, Mendez wrapped food in large home made flour tortillas inside individual napkins. He had a lot of success, and consumers came from other places around the Mexican border looking for the "food of the burrito" (i.e., "food of the little donkey"), the word they eventually adopted as the name for these large tacos.
