Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day, and I’ve never believed its best dishes should be reserved for the morning. A warm, generously filled breakfast burrito is just as welcome at the end of a long day - especially when breakfast sounds more comforting than anything else.
In New Mexico, breakfast burritos are a beloved staple. The exact combination varies, but roasted green chile is the defining, non-negotiable ingredient, bringing gentle heat, smoky depth, and unmistakable New Mexican flavor to every bite.
Our gluten-free version pairs softly scrambled eggs with crispy potatoes, melted cheese, and plenty of roasted green chile, all wrapped in a warm, pliable tortilla. Serve it handheld or smothered in red or green chile sauce - or choose “Christmas,” a combination of both and my personal favorite.
Whether you make these for a leisurely weekend breakfast or an easy breakfast-for-dinner, they’re hearty, comforting, and satisfying at any time of day.
Softly scrambled eggs, crispy potatoes, melted cheese, and smoky roasted green chile create a satisfying balance of textures and flavors in every bite. Frozen hash browns and canned roasted green chiles keep the preparation simple without sacrificing flavor, while warming the gluten-free tortillas before filling makes them more pliable and easier to roll. Serve the burritos handheld for an easy, satisfying meal, or smother them in warm chile sauce and extra melted cheese for the full New Mexican experience.
