A good breakfast burrito can fortify your body and soul.

Crudo? There's nothing like a big ol' burro with extra salsa to bring you back to life. Need to get the most bang for your buck? A good breakfast burrito will keep you full well into lunch or further. Are you working out and needing a good recovery meal? A burrito will instantly reverse all those laps you just ran. However, as we all know, not all breakfast burritos are created equal.

A legendary breakfast burrito is marked by a thin, chewy tortilla, scrambled eggs that have not been overcooked to death, a crispy potato, and juicy morsels of breakfast meat, any meat.

In a sea of lousy breakfast burritos, here are a handful personally vetted by L.A. TACO to fully satisfy your breakfast burrito cravings all over the Southland.
