~ WARMING BURRITOS~
The best way to eat a breakfast burrito is to plan ahead the night before. Put one in the fridge before bed so that it has the chance to dethaw before you microwave it in the morning. Then Microwave for 2 minutes and let cool for 1-2 minutes before eating. Otherwise, place straight in microwave for 2 minutes, cut in half, and microwave for another 2 minutes.

    Initially I thought adding cottage cheese to the meat was really weird but after trying it today this is hands down my favorite burrito recipe. Definitely gonna be making my taco/burrito/nacho meat this way from now on
  • For anyone else who loves sour cream with their burritos, I just made these and dipping them in nonfat plain Greek yogurt is an excellent high protein substitution that tastes the same. I haven't tried putting them inside the burrito but I assume it isn't the best when you reheat them. Loved the cottage cheese method! Never seen that before

    I'm a university student that lives on his own and just lost 5 lbs in the past month because of midterms whilst already being a fairly slim person at 5'10 and 130 lbs usually. Did not expect a video as random as this to rejuvenate me, but I'm super excited now and am going to try and make these for my lunch. Most of the cooking videos I watch end up using way more than they suggested (cough cough Joshua Weissman) and become really elaborate in ways that would maybe be quick for the person making the video but take a lot longer for noobs like me. In sum, thank you for this idea and making sense can't wait to fix my diet with this!
  • @Dayeadens
    I've watched my fair share of cooking channels. I think I can easily say: Keep this up. You've got a nice quirk to you that I think will carry you far. Good luck in your endeavors.
  • @namu9408
    I've never been this motivated to start meal prepping my breakfast, thank you, you made it seem so easy! and keep going ~
  • @AZEOforreal
    Made some of these for breakfast for the week, and I used breakfast sausage and spinach instead. They’re so good!! The additions I made taste like biscuits and gravy
  • @EliFitness-pk6lp
    If y'all can spare a little more time, I love adding carmelized onions using America's Test Kitchen's nonstick method (uses less oil). Roasted red peppers are another excellent and healthy nutrient and flavor booster. Either way, awesome recipe!
  • @icejadechica
    Absolutely horrified at the amount of salt you added, but absolutely can't wait to try these! (minus some of the salt)
  • @probablyhighngl
    I tried these today they were super good. I don’t know why I never tried the regular ground turkey for breakfast. The cottage cheese was perfect everything about it and you can put it in the freezer! Such a great recipe I’ll remember for the rest of my life😂
  • @tahzaebrown9743
    its so nice to see a single person doing freezer meal preps
  • @bbryno2652
    I already add cottage cheese to my eggs before I cook them for the extra moisture and it always SLAPS! I never thought about adding it in with the meat and seasons!! Going to definitely make these in soon!
  • @mmartens4440
    I stumbled across your video by mistake the other day. I was actually on YouTube and I saw your video for a high-protein breakfast burrito. so I decided to take a look, and it really caught my attention. I am a 60 your old blind guy and was looking for something for a little different breakfast routine. I made this this morning. I just made it as a scramble. Damn! This was good. Your burrito will be cycling in and out of my eyes morning routine. Keep it up. Straightforward easy to follow. Even for me.
  • @Psychlohexane
    I've made these twice and they are excellent. I love them! 2nd time I chopped up half an onion and cooked it with the Kale separately to get a good Sautee on the onions. KALE TIP from a different recipe. Take the leaves off the stems and massage the Kale until it softens and darkens. This helps remove some bitterness and makes the Kale less fibrous.
  • @TheRozenOne
    Tried out the cottage cheese/turkey combination to make street style tacos with fresh onions and was actually impressed with the taste compared to traditional carne asada/pollo asado! Game changer for sure.
  • @dubot4076
    Thanks for making this video 5 minutes, no bs. Easy. Cottage cheese is amazing for sauces ==> high protein, creamy. SO THOMEK.
  • @eriksomnas
    Great recipe, editing, humour and pace! Only thing I didn't catch the first time was how you wrapped them, but when you made another it was clear as day. Subscribed 👍🏻
