Good Food Made Simple makes quite a few breakfast burritos (you should definitely check out the Sriracha Scramble some time). In fact, there are so many varieties that we wound up completely passing over their Uncured Bacon Breakfast Burrito for a very long time.
Our confusion stems from the fact that we’d reviewed the Uncured Canadian Bacon Breakfast Burrito in the past, and the name is strikingly similar. Now we’re learning that these are two very different burritos — one is Canadian bacon, and the other is traditional bacon, but that’s not the only difference.
So let’s dive into Good Food Made Simple’s Uncured Bacon Breakfast Burrito and see what it’s all about.
We do have to admit that we cooked this in the oven instead of the microwave, which is why the top has a little bit of a golden brown finish in the photo below. The flour tortilla that holds this whole thing together came out slightly crisped, which is exactly how we like burrito shells to be.
Similar to the Uncured Canadian Bacon version, this breakfast burrito includes egg and potato, giving it a good, hearty breakfast vibe. But that’s where the similarities end. This one skips the jalapeño and pepperjack cheese, and instead uses a nice white cheddar. So instead of being a little bit spicy, this burrito has a sharper flavor. We also found this to be a bit less creamy than its Canadian friend.
As for the bacon, we can’t really comment on it except to say that we didn’t find very much of it. We’re told this is a traditional uncured bacon, but we can’t really verify that. We’re taking the package at its word on this one.
Good Food Made Simple’s Uncured Bacon Breakfast Burrito is a great-tasting way to start the day. Just don’t get it confused with the Uncured Canadian Bacon version. Now that we’ve tried both we can say with confidence that they’re not as similar as they may sound.
