A good breakfast burrito can carry you all the way to lunch. A great one makes you plan your morning around it. If you’re searching for a breakfast burrito near you in Minneapolis, St. Paul or the suburbs, here’s what separates the great ones from the rest.
It starts with the tortilla
Most breakfast burritos are wrapped in a tortilla that came out of a plastic bag. It tears, it gets soggy and it tastes like nothing. A tortilla pressed by hand and cooked fresh is soft, a little chewy and strong enough to hold everything together. At Brito’s Burrito we press our tortillas by hand every morning at every location.
Real eggs, cooked fresh
The best breakfast burritos use eggs cooked fresh, not a mix that has been sitting in a warming tray. You can taste the difference right away: fluffy, hot and never rubbery.
The right fillings
The classics are classics for a reason:
- Eggs, melted cheese and crispy hash browns: the base of every great breakfast burrito.
- Your choice of protein grilled to order, for the hungry mornings.
- A veggie version with beans and fresh pico de gallo.
Add a spicy salsa or a spoon of queso and you have breakfast that keeps you full for hours.
Size matters (but so does balance)
A breakfast burrito should be filling, not a pile of potatoes with one bite of egg. Look for a place where every bite has a little of everything.
Breakfast burritos all day
Not everyone is hungry at 7 a.m. That’s why our breakfast burritos are on the menu all day, so you can have one for lunch or a late-night snack. Check the full breakfast burrito menu.
