1

Begin by cooking the diced potatoes in a pan with a little vegetable oil until they start to sizzle.

2

Do not season the potatoes right away; wait until they get some color and are almost fully cooked before adding salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

3

While the potatoes are cooking, preheat the oven to 365 degrees Fahrenheit for the bacon.

4

Place the bacon on a cookie sheet and season with black pepper. Cook in the oven until crispy and golden brown.

5

Chop some red and green bell peppers for the potatoes and set aside.

6

Once the potatoes have some color, add the chopped bell peppers and continue cooking until everything is nicely browned.

7

In a separate pan, scramble the 5 large eggs and season with salt and pepper.

8

Once the eggs are cooked, combine them with the potatoes and bell peppers in the pan.

9

Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave or on a skillet.

10

Assemble the burritos by placing the egg and potato mixture on the tortillas, adding Kraft singles cheese, and rolling them up tightly.

11

In a clean pan, melt some butter and pan-fry the wrapped burritos seam-side down until golden brown on one side, then flip and cook the other side until crispy.
