Make-Ahead Keto Breakfast Burritos (Easy Freezer Meal Prep Idea!)
These keto freezer breakfast burritos are perfect to have on hand for busy mornings!
Craving a breakfast burrito?
It’s easy to make a few keto swaps in order to create a killer bacon, egg, and “potato” breakfast burrito! I personally love hearty, filling, and simple keto breakfast ideas. With that said, I’m also sharing a clever way to meal prep make-ahead freezer breakfast burritos!
The secret is to make freezer pouches with burrito filling using sandwich bags!
Then, when you’re ready to enjoy, you’ll re-heat the contents in the microwave and wrap up the burrito filling using a keto-friendly wrap, such as Folios or Crepini wraps, for an awesome burrito experience!
No more reheating soggy burritos using this genius method, I promise!
Hip tips for making the best keto breakfast burritos:
- I’m using a Folio cheese wrap instead of a carb-filled tortilla to create my freezer breakfast burritos. You can get them from Costco and some local grocery stores. Check out where to buy them in your area! You could alternatively make your own cheese wrap just like Folios with these directions!
- Yep, radishes make a perfect swap for starchy potatoes! In fact, once pan-roasted, they DO NOT taste like radishes AT ALL! This is the best keto discovery since fathead pizza dough! The breakfast radishes with diced onions and bell peppers are AMAZING and so easy to make.
- I suggest cooking the scrambled eggs slightly underdone because the reheating process will cook them further.
- I used a pound of bacon, but you could always substitute with breakfast sausage instead.

These hearty breakfast burrito pouches are filled with bacon, cheese, eggs, and seasoned radish breakfast "potatoes".
Ingredients
- 1 pound bacon
- 1 pound radishes, quartered
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 6 eggs
- 2 cups Mexican blend shredded cheddar cheese
- 7 keto wraps for serving (such as Folios)
Directions
1
Cook the bacon in a skillet or in the oven. Let cool, chop into smaller pieces, and set aside.
2
Heat skillet to medium heat and add olive oil. Add onion, bell pepper, radishes, and garlic, and stir to combine using a wooden spoon or spatula. Season with paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Let the radishes brown and caramelize for about ten minutes until tender. Once cooked, remove from heat and let cool.
3
Whisk eggs in a bowl and scramble them in another skillet on the stove. Season with a pinch of salt & pepper. Undercook them just slightly, so they won't be overcooked when re-heating later.
4
Once all breakfast filling ingredients are cool, mix the radishes, bacon, eggs, and cheese together in the skillet. Divide evenly into 7 freezer sandwich bags, about 1 cup of filling per baggy. Seal bags and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

To compile a keto burrito from frozen pouch:
Remove the contents from one bag and place it on a microwaveable plate or bowl. Microwave for 2 minutes and set aside. Place a Folio cheese wrap on another plate on top of it's included piece of parchment paper. Microwave for 90 seconds. Immediately remove the wrap from paper and roll-up your burrito contents while the cheese is still warm and soft. The wrap's texture may get a little crispy as it cools, but it's still so GOOD!

YUM! I am SOOO making these…thanks! 😃👍🏻👍🏻
You’re most welcome! Enjoy!
Delicious!
Yay! Thanks so much for commenting! 🙌
YUM! These were so delicious and reminiscent of a potato dish! Does the nutritional breakdown include the folio wrap? If so, may I have it without it pls, thank you.
Yes! The wraps are included. You could enjoy it without. Hope this helps!
Anyone know what the cooked radish taste like? Always had them raw & pics look like potatoes. Thx
They are very mild like a potato, and taste nothing like they do raw. I just had them in a beef roast instead of potatoes and so yummy!
Hmm. This recipe didn’t do it for me. The radishes texture was weird and I just didn’t care for the overall taste.
Oh bummer! Sorry to hear you didn’t care for this. Thanks for letting us know what you thought of it.
