To anyone who is watching this and wants to sell something that is made in your kitchen there are laws you have to follow or you will be in a boatload of trouble. Your kitchen has to be inspected by the health department and you have to have dishwashing sink you have to have a separate hand washing sink you have to have access to bleach water for your counters and anywhere that you are cutting you have to make sure you know the laws so therefore you have to take a class which you have to pass and pay for that says you can serve food to the public. Then you have to get a license from the state and it has to be available in the sight of anyone who buys from you. Once you jump through these hoops it's easy easy to make money with food
You also have to have what is called a commissary if you are selling from the street. This is a place where you store vegetables fruits meat cheese whatever you need and it has to be like a legal restaurant or your house if you pass to have the proper freezing and cooling and cooking equipment. call your health department and find out what the laws are I'm not kidding I owned a restaurant for many years and I know the laws and you have to follow them because they will come and inspect you if they see you on the street they will come and inspect you. When people work off the street too people turn them in all the time.

Restaurant hack: to divide something into even quantities split it in half and the halves into halves, over and over until you get the quantity you're looking for. That isn't as easy to do for 20 though. That's why so many food items come in 8, 16, 32, etc. Still you can get to 20 without too much difficulty. Split the batch in two, then the two individually in half again to make 4, then you can make 5 equal balls from those by eye and feel a lot easier than weighing all 20 individually. Also to eye the separation of the final balls you can roll the dough out into a long log or roll which is much easier to separate into even segments.
Price hack: beans are indeed cheap and can be made in a massive batch that will make the equivalent of about 20 cans worth for roughly $7. It saves about $13 and it's fresh, homemade, with exactly the ingredients you choose (price based on dry beans, a large yellow onion, half a cup of lard or vegetable oil, and a few tablespoons of cumin. It's also very low effort. You dump everything in a pot and simmer it for four hours.

I would add cilantro to the salsa, I would add ground beef to the chorizo and cook it separately from the eggs and potatoes, add some Spanish rice and shredded cheese blend, use refried black beans, chopped green onion. Make the eggs separate, add some mayonnaise, milk, cream, black pepper, butter and mustard to the eggs, blend in a blender until smooth and frothy and then steam them scrambled so they puff up, get light and fluffy. Then layer all your ingredients in small spoonfuls, then form the burritos, then lightly toast formed burritos in a frying pan using bacon greese and or lard. I would only charge $2-$3 at the most per burrito.
Using the method I just outlined could double the burritos to 40 per batch and if you double that batch could yield 80-100 burritos. Likely only costing $1 or less to make per burrito. Then sell them for $2-$3. And you could make a profit of $200 a day.

Oof. So I want to preface this comment by saying that I love this as a meal prep video or even just a breakfast taco video. Papa, chorizo, and egg is one of my favorite combos! Reminds me of how my mom would fill up one of those styrofoam tortilla warmers with tacos to go every time we went on a day trip to the beach.
I don't know what part of Texas you're in that people are willing to pay $8 for a breakfast taco, but that wouldn't fly down here in the RGV (Texas, but probably way south of you. Plus everyone wants delivery. Also, I wouldn't call this passive income. Side hustle, for sure. But there's nothing passive about cooking, wrapping, and selling food. I feel ya though. If I could sell them for $8 down here, it would be worth the effort.

I was a nurse and I also started a home food service, South African food. My clients were in the OR where I worked. We already had food handling certificates (Australia) I put up my menu on a Monday, did my shopping on a Wednesday, cooked on a Thursday, secured my food safely as per the regulations and took it to work on the Friday in two big freezer containers. The first week I had 7 orders. The second week 19 and the third 44. I made $700 a week. After two months I stopped because we couldn’t cope with 70 orders plus. We were so burnt out because my husband and I worked as well. It was extremely lucrative but it was hard work. The food laws in Australia are strict.

This made me think of a lady who used to work at IBM and every morning she’d sell 100 taco’s at a dollar a piece, this was back n the 80’s. She prepared everything the night before, heated it in the morning and put the taco’s together. Can’t remember if she did it everyday, but she made a killing. She’s retired now, but now she makes salsa which can be found in small local stores. Though, I think, a company makes it because of health rules. Enterprising lady, used the money to help her kids thru the university and other family adventures.

Great video. I would gladly buy a couple of these at least every other day if someone brought them to work. I’m retired now but when I worked at the military bases in California, there was usually an entrepreneur who had his wife make burritos. They sold well and were a true bargain for those of us who bought them and enjoyed them. I have watched your content for a few years now. I always enjoy seeing you cook. You have a soothing voice that makes it a pleasure to watch. Thank you.

$100 I think my neighbor makes 300 to 400 in 3 hours. 5 days a week they sell burritos. 3 different kind in one and a drink. $10. And I'm sure she gets tips. Those burritos was the most delicious. 3 different flavors! This is truly a good business and bless anyone who wakes up early to feed homemade food for less. I love my new neighbor hood. They have the best Mexican food and surely earn their dinero. But it's simple and anyone with any food background can do it and make a good hustle.

Even if you did this just for yourself. That is a months worth of breakfast for. 84 each. Just pop in the microwave and go. If you have a family, still a cheap and easy breakfast. You can alter the recipe and freeze a variety if it gets boring. My son buys frozen breakfast burritos all the time. I bet he pays more than. 84 each and they have so many chemicals and mystery ingredients. Is chorizo spicy My husband and I don't like spicy food and buy everything mild.

I agree with some of the comments left about the price. I paid $6. 13 this morning for a bigger burrito with bacon, and being a huge breakfast burrito fan in Denver, most usually cost $4 to 6. But these are trying times. I have paid $5 for ones a co-worker makes, and are smaller than yours even. We say we want to help each other out, so I say pay what they ask for. People wouldn't need to do this if companies paid a living wage.

Breakfast Burritos are generally allowed under Texas Cottage laws. Some restrictions do exist. If all else fails in trying g to sell. Get a little white girl be the face of your business. Let her get cited by the police. Gov. Hot Wheels will make it his personal mission to relax the cottage laws even more. Think I’m kidding. Go look up the last few changes and why they happened.

Years ago, I played pool at a little club and we had the tamale man who came in late at night. We donated to him and they were the best tamales ever! His wife made them and they have always been my favorite! Smart idea and so very yummy! You can always use a craft pricing website to help with everything. Oh! Btw, the tamale man's wife was able to get a food truck!

400 degree Onions are the best Great recipe and idea. I appreciate everything I have learned from you! We rarely eat out mexican (OUR FAVORITE) because I there is food at home! I still have to conquer homemade tortillas. That is next on my list. Being near H-Town, there are so many great cook at home options (pretty inexpensive, so I have been lazy.

When I was a teen I worked at a clothing store in El Paso, TX, there was a guy who used to sell his breakfast burriots at our store. He made green chilie and bean as well as bean and chesse and to this day (30 years later) I still recall how so dang good they were, all homemade all fresh. Good Luck

I'm not struggling financially, but I'm definitely not rich enough to shop at HEB lol. I don't know how people do it. That store is so ridiculously expensive compared to all the other grocery stores. I like some of their stuff, but I can't stomach paying almost double what I spend at Kroger.

I love it that you are showing someone how to better themself. Many times in my life I've had to evaluate this question: Do I have more time than money or more money than time That's a very valid question when thinking about buying ready made ingredients vs cooking from scratch.

Wow, $8 per burrito I'm in Dallas and i have never seen an average sized burrito priced that much. I do understand that each person can make their own price though and make less profit.
I do appreciate the video and you taking the time to show step by step. Thank you.

That was interesting and you were pretty funny. Also those looked so delicious. There were a couple of women who sold breakfast burritos at the El Paso Amtrak stations and I loved them. They were not as good as yours but they were good with homemade tortillas.
