I used large spinach tortillas at room temperature.
I first fried up a tube of sausage,
I also chopped up a whole bunch of cilantro -- note these photos all show the ingredients after I'd made a few burritos. I brought all ingredients to room temperature before stuffing the burritos and let the sausage rest in a bowl with paper towels to dry it.
Then I filled the tortillas with about 1/4 of cheese and about a half ladle of each ingredient.
I rolled up the burritos using these instructions -- here are five of them completed.
I rolled the ten burritos up in saran wrap and put five in a freezer bag, then into the freezer.
So we'll see how these taste on Wednesday when I go back to the gym.
Here's the price/calorie per unit breakdown:
- 10 Don Pancho large spinach tortillas -- $4/290 calories
- 1 lb mild sausage -- $1.78/95
- 8 jumbo eggs -- $1.37/72
- 2/3 bag of tater rounds -- $0.95/85
- cilantro -- $0.83/0
- 1 bag of WinCo brand monterey jack cheese -- $2.34/110
- 1 jar of salsa -- $1.89/~0
Just for comparison, the Jimmy Dean breakfast croissant is 410 calories and $1.25/sandwich, so that's $0.03/calorie.
