How To Make Slow Cooker Breakfast Burrito Bowls

Step 1

Brown the sausage and set aside to cool. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up any large clumps of sausage with a spatula, until cooked through and browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

Place the sausage, potatoes, beans, and seasonings in the slow cooker. Transfer the sausage to a 4-quart slow cooker. Add the potatoes, beans, salsa, chiles, shallot or onion, garlic, and salt, and stir to combine.

Step 3

Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Cover and cook on the LOW setting until the potatoes are tender, 6 to 8 hours.

Step 4

Cook the eggs and serve. When the potatoes are tender, scramble or fry as many eggs as desired in a nonstick skillet. Layer the sausage, potato, and bean mixture over tortilla chips if desired and top with the eggs. Top with diced avocado, hot sauce or salsa, and cilantro, if desired.
