I am so excited because I am finally adding some recipes that I created almost 2 1/2 years ago. It has been a crazy few years for our family. A few years ago, my husband’s job transferred us from Texas to Canada and I just happened to be pregnant at the time. Moving internationally with two dogs, a 10 month old, and being pregnant was no easy feat! Being pregnant, I had some cravings and I just so happened to be craving Tex-mex, queso, and a SuperSonic breakfast burrito. I had to come up with some copycat recipes fast!
When we lived in Houston, we lived in walking distance of not one but two really authentic taco places (and a really cool elote/snow cone stand). I never knew how lucky we were to have so many good breakfast tacos around us!
It wasn’t that when we lived in Canada the food was bad, we actually went to some really amazing farmer’s markers, there were Tim Horton’s everywhere, and got to try some really yummy stuff like poutine but I was just craving really random things since I was pregnant. I really wanted a SuperSonic breakfast burrito but there wasn’t even a Sonic! I had to get creative and make my own copycat recipes for all the things I was craving back home.
What’s in a SuperSonic breakfast burrito?
A SuperSonic breakfast burrito is made up of:
- Flour tortillas
- American cheese (or shredded cheddar cheese)
- Eggs
- Breakfast sausage
- Onion
- Jalapeño slices (from a jar)
- Roma tomatoes
- Chunky salsa (on the side)
Is there a sauce on the burritos?
SuperSonic breakfast burritos may seem like they have a sauce because the cheese gets quite melty but the salsa is usually served on the side.
What ingredients do I need for this recipe?
- Flour tortillas
- Tater tots
- American cheese
- Eggs
- Half and half
- Breakfast sausage (the original is pork, but you can use whatever you like)
- Diced white onion
- Jalapeño slices (from a jar)
- Sliced Roma tomatoes
- Salt and pepper
- Chunky salsa (on the side)
For this recipe, I recommend adding some half and half to your eggs when you scramble them. The half and half will give the eggs a fluffier texture. Also, I baked the tater tots for these breakfast burritos but you can fry them in oil per the directions on the bag or you can also air fry them, if desired.
Copycat SuperSonic Breakfast Burrito
Ingredients
- 6 flour tortillas
- 6 medium eggs
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup half and half
- 6 slices American cheese
- 1/2 lb pork breakfast sausage
- 16 ounces frozen tater tots
- 1/2 white onion diced
- 1/3 cup jalpeno slices from a jar
- 2 Roma tomatoes sliced
- chunky salsa for serving
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by cooking your tater tots per the directions on their bag. I baked my tater tots but if you want a true copycat recipe, feel free to fry them per the directions on the bag.
- Next, heat your tortillas in a large skillet. Take a little bit of the butter a time and gently fry your tortillas in the skillet until warm and slightly toasted.
- In another skillet, brown the pork breakfast sausage. Drain the fat and set aside to cool.
- In a bowl, whisk your eggs and then stir the half and half in.
- Cook the eggs and scramble well in a large skillet that has been sprayed with non-stick spray.
- Next, assemble your burritos. Add equal amounts eggs, tater tots, breakfast sausage, one slice of cheese, salt and pepper to taste, jalapeño slices, diced white onion, and slices of roma tomatoes to each tortilla.
- Add salsa if desired.
