    These meal prep spinach, egg, and cheese breakfast burritos are a must for anyone on the go. They only take an hour to throw together, and you have breakfast all week! I used pretty simple ingredients, but you could add hash browns, cooked sausage, crispy bacon, or more vegetables if you want.

    Spinach Egg and Cheese Breakfast Burritos

    Our favorite way to reheat them is in the toaster for a few minutes. Just make you flatten them a little so they will fit in your toaster.

    Can you freeze these breakfast burritos? Yes. Put them in a freezer friendly container and freeze up to 4 months. You can pop them in the oven to reheat or microwave them for a few minutes.
