In the meantime, look at this freezer burrito recipe on site:

10/28/14 		Here is the recipe for 100 8" sausage egg and cheese burritos, compliments of the US Navy:

7 quarts eggs (that is, 140 large eggs)
3 pounds cheese, shredded
3 pounds cooked weight pork sausage
5 cups disced toamtoes (1/2 a #10 can, drained)
3 cups diced onions
1 tablespoon pepper
2 tablespoons oregano
100 8" flour tortillas (9 1/2 pounds)

Mix eggs,
Mix cheese,sausage, tomatoes, pepper, oregano
Cook 1 quart eggs, just partially set, stir in 6 ounces cheese mix, cook until set. You will do this about 7 times.
Just warm the tortillas, so they will fold without breaking- best done 2 at a time on a griddle.
Use 1/2 cup filling per tortilla.

MUST be held at 140 degrees or higher for food safety.
