Hearty Campsite Breakfast Burrito to Start Your Day | I Heart RVing

I Heart RVing

In our opinion, a good day starts with a great breakfast, especially when we’re out RVing. A filling, healthy, delicious meal fuels the adventure—whether that’s a hike, a bike ride, traveling to the next location, or enjoying a cozy day near the campfire. One of the simplest options is a handheld campsite breakfast burrito. Loaded with protein, vegetables, and hearty flavors, all in one convenient package.

You may think that cooking at the campsite is a feat. After all, space, cooking tools, and even heat sources are more limited than what you’ll find in a full kitchen. While campsite cooking has its own unique challenges, that’s all part of the fun. Plus, it opens up opportunities for greater creativity. And, we think you’ll agree meals taste even better when surrounded by fresh air and adventure.

You certainly don’t need to go without. With just a little planning, you can easily whip up nutrient-packed meals like these mouthwatering campsite breakfast burritos that can power you through a busy morning.

Hearty Campsite Breakfast Burrito

Ingredients:

½ cup diced bell peppers (any color)
½ cup diced onion
1 medium potato (diced into cubes)
2 Tbsp olive or avocado oil
4 strips of turkey bacon
4 large eggs, whisked
½ cup black beans (drained and rinsed)
4 large whole wheat tortillas
1 cup shredded cheese
1 avocado, sliced
4 Tbsp salsa
Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

Before leaving home or in your RV, dice up your bell peppers, onions, and potatoes and place them in reusable containers so they’re ready to go.
Heat a large skillet over your camping stove or campfire. Add 1 Tbsp of oil and toss in the diced potatoes. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they’re golden and crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, cook the turkey bacon until crispy (about 5 minutes). Once cooked, chop into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Add a little more oil (if needed) and toss in the peppers and onions. Sauté until softened (around 5 minutes).
Push the veggies to one side and pour in the whisked eggs. Scramble them until cooked through. Then mix them into the vegetables.
Stir in the black beans, potatoes, and bacon, allowing everything to heat through.
Warm your tortillas by placing them directly on the skillet for a few seconds per side.
Assemble your burritos by spooning a quarter of the egg mixture into each tortilla. Top each one with a quarter cup of shredded cheese, avocado slices, and a spoonful of your favorite salsa.
Wrap it up and enjoy! They can be served right away or wrapped in foil to keep warm or to save for later. They’re easy to reheat over the fire!
