Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Roast in the preheated oven until soft, about 25 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, cook chorizo in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, breaking apart with a wooden spoon, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain any excess fat; transfer chorizo to a bowl and set aside to cool. Wipe out the skillet and return it to the stove.
Step 4
Place sweet potatoes and green onions on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine and spread out evenly.
Step 5
Whisk eggs in a medium bowl until smooth. Heat butter in the skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in eggs and scramble until just set, 3 to 5 minutes. Scrape scrambled eggs into a clean bowl and let cool.
Step 6
Line up tortillas in assembly-line fashion. Divide chorizo between 8 tortillas. Top each with a portion of sweet potato-onion mixture, scrambled eggs, 1 tablespoon salsa, and queso fresco. Fold the bottom of each tortilla up over filling, then fold in both sides and roll up burritos.
Step 7
Flip burritos so they are seam-side down. Wrap each individually with aluminum foil and place into a resealable plastic bag.
