This recipe is a quick and easy way to start your day off right. I woke up late one morning and desperately needed a quick, delicious breakfast to fuel my day at the office. My friends always joke about my late mornings. It's true, I'm not a morning person, but after experimenting with countless recipes, I have found that this one does the trick. The perfect balance of savory and satisfying, it's become a regular in my weekday mornings.
The best part? It's incredibly customizable! I adore making these. You can add whatever veggies and cheese you like, even leftovers from last night's dinner! There are endless possibilities; you could add roasted veggies from last night’s dinner, some bacon or sausage if you are a big meat lover, and even some different types of cheeses, like pepper jack or even some cream cheese!

🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- First things first, gather your ingredients! Make sure everything is easily accessible so you're not scrambling around mid-recipe. I always like to prep my veggies first.
- Now, let's toast those bagels! Pop 'em in the toaster, or if you're like me and frequently misplace the toaster, just pop them in the microwave for 20-30 seconds. They should be warm and slightly crispy, and not cold and sad. This step is critical for a successful breakfast burrito (or it's at least how I felt that morning).
- Next up, get your filling ready! Grab a microwave-safe bowl, throw in your eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Whisk it all together with a lil zest. Microwave it for about 45 seconds, stirring halfway to ensure that everything is cooked evenly. If you like your eggs more done, go for another 15-20 seconds. Don't overcook the eggs, though! I once overcooked my eggs by like a full 2 minutes...that was a sad day. They were just sad, rubbery little pancakes.
- Ok, now for the cheese spread! In a small bowl, soften your cream cheese—maybe by leaving it on the countertop for a bit or by quickly warming it in the microwave for 10 seconds. Spread it evenly on the bottom half of each toasted bagel.
- Time for some strategic layering! Start with some scrambled eggs; don't go crazy. After that add your veggies and finally sprinkle some shredded cheddar on top of the egg mixture. Be mindful of not overcrowding each burrito so that you can hold the things well together.
- Carefully fold your bagel in half over the filling, like you're giving it a big, warm hug. This is where patience is key. Trust me, I've attempted this task a lot many times. Try to make sure that everything is perfectly tucked in so that nothing spills out! We've got a whole mess to avoid.
- And that's it! You've made yourself a beautiful, delicious bagel breakfast burrito. Admire your work, snap a picture for Instagram (obviously), and most importantly, enjoy!
- Now, if you're feeling really fancy, you can always add some hot sauce or salsa on the side! The possibilities are endless. Let your creativity flow! But hey, if you are short on time, just skip the hot sauce and salsa completely and enjoy it plain. I won't judge you!
📝 Notes
- For extra flavor, try adding some hot sauce or salsa.
- Feel free to substitute any of the ingredients with your favorites. For example, feta cheese would also work great! You can also add some other veggies like mushrooms or tomatoes!
