Ham, Egg, and Cheese with Green Sauce

People do many things to ward off the side effects that a night's sleep brings with it upon waking up in the morning. Some cure it with caffeine, others exercise (those are the crazy ones), but I like to curb said side effects with a big, warm breakfast burrito.


I don't know exactly when I became an addict of this portable food gem, but it was probably when my mom would make us breakfast at 4:30 in the morning before we hurried off to seminary and school. I could smell the bacon or ham, cheese, and eggs as I prepared for a long day at school. I knew when I had my fill that I could take on the world!


As I have gotten older, I have become somewhat of a breakfast burrito guru.  Whenever I see it on a menu, I have to order one.


Now a days, it's one of the only things that can wake me up in the morning. I usually order them from a little fast food restaurant near my workplace called Hilberto's. Past and present Arizona residents will know of the 'bertos' chain of low end fast food Mexican restaurants. People go to these familiar dives seeking cheap, fast, and very satisfying Mexican food. I usually order the ham, egg, and cheese burrito with green sauce. It's one of the best burritos I've ever had and it never disappoints.


So here's to you breakfast burrito. Fighter of morning grouchiness and filler of empty stomachs.
