Chop up the vegetables after rinsing them.

Slice the russet potatoes in half lengthwise, then slice each half into smaller chunks. Place the chopped potatoes in water to prevent browning.

Shred or grate the sharp cheddar cheese.

Scramble the eggs, ensuring they are not overcooked.

Roughly chop the Jimmy Dean sausage and cook until no longer pink.

In a skillet, heat oil and butter on high heat, then add the chopped potatoes seasoned with salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Cover with a lid to steam until fork tender.

Once the potatoes are fork tender, add the chopped bell peppers and cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, monitoring to prevent burning.

Assemble the burrito by layering the scrambled eggs, sausage, potatoes, bell peppers, pico de gallo, and green onions in the tortilla shell. Fold the burrito up.

Optionally, place the assembled burrito in a skillet to fry the shell before serving.
