# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Combine ground turkey with half the salt, half the black pepper, ground sage, ground thyme, dried marjoram, crushed red pepper flakes, and paprika. Mix thoroughly using a fork or hands until evenly blended.
02 -
Heat a large skillet over medium heat with cooking spray. Cook the seasoned turkey, breaking into small pieces with a spatula, until fully cooked through. Transfer cooked turkey to a clean bowl and wipe skillet clean.
03 -
In a bowl, whisk together eggs with remaining salt and black pepper, adding a splash of water. Heat the cleaned skillet with cooking spray over medium heat, add eggs, and scramble until cooked but still moist. Transfer eggs to the bowl with cooked turkey.
04 -
Add shredded cheddar cheese, salsa, and chopped cilantro to the turkey and eggs mixture. Stir gently to combine all components evenly.
05 -
Spread tortillas flat on a clean surface. Divide filling evenly, approximately 2/3 cup per tortilla. Fold in edges and roll tightly to enclose the filling.
06 -
Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat with cooking spray. Place rolled burritos seam-side down and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes on the other side until golden and crisp.
# Helpful Hints:

For meal prep, store filling separately and heat approximately 2/3 cup in the microwave before assembling burritos.

To freeze, cool filling to room temperature, assemble burritos, wrap tightly in plastic wrap or foil, and store in a freezer-safe bag for up to three months.
