Cook the bacon until it is nice and brown and crispy.

Use a clean paper towel to soak up excess bacon grease, repeating this process twice.

4

Add 6 beaten eggs to the pan with the bacon, leaving a little oil for moisture.

5

Stir the eggs and cook until almost finished, then turn off the stove to avoid overcooking.

6

Spread a spoonful of refried beans over the homemade tortilla, leaving space at the edges.

7

Add a generous amount of the egg and bacon mixture onto the tortilla.

8

Roll up the tortilla tightly.

9

Wrap the rolled burrito in a paper towel before wrapping it in aluminum foil to prevent sweating.
