Steak Burrito
My husband grills ribeye steaks at least once every other week. I like my steaks rare to medium rare and this is an ideal way to use the leftover steak without overcooking it.

These are great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The recipe was passed to me from my mother-in-law and my husband and I eat them all of the time. If desired, top with grated cheese and heat in microwave until melted.
Breakfast Burritos
This breakfast burrito with bacon and eggs is a different way to make burritos. Burritos with fried eggs, bacon, and refried beans are topped with melted cheese to create a savory dish. Serve with salsa on the side, and you are good to go!
