There aren't any good store-bought burritos in my area & the last few weeks I've been on a burrito making binge.  

I pressure cooked a 6# chicken for my first batch & then pressure cooked a 6.5# pork shoulder for the pulled pork second batch.  Both turned out very well.  

Yesterday & today I made breakfast burritos and they turned out fantastic.  Rather simply made.

1 doz eggs scrambled 
1 lb bacon (cooked & crumbled)
20 oz package of Ore-Ida Potatoes O'Brien
1/2 large yellow onion chopped
several cloves garlic minced
1/4 cup T. Matt Evans' fatalii/hab relish  (hot)
1 1/2 cup Ricco's aged cheddar cheese sauce
SomeTone's Restaurant Grind black pepper
1/2 cup of my hot, sweet, pickled onion slices chopped

OK, I'm no RisaG, (I can only aspire) but I'm really happy with what I've made so far.  It was the sweet pickled onions that turned the breakfast burritos from OK to really good.  I lime & sweet pickle hot peppers too and if had used them could have omitted the pickled onions.   I grow heirloom tomatoes too.  And am overwintering a couple plants of Mexican Oregano.  Both would have helped some I think.  Next time will add. 

Next I want to make a shrimp burrito.  Purchased a 2# package of cooked cocktail shrimp (aprox 200 count) and would like some ideas as to what to mix them with.  Anyone have some suggestions?
