Preparation:

    Step 1
  • Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo ​​and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
  • Step 2
  • Spray 3 silicone ice cube trays with 45ml (1.5 fl oz) compartments with cooking spray.
  • Step 3
  • Place the bacon and cheddar in one of the prepared pans, dividing the ingredients evenly among the 4 cavities. Add the chorizo, bell pepper, and red onion to the second prepared pan, dividing the ingredients evenly among the 4 cavities.
  • Step 4
  • In a large measuring cup, combine whole eggs, 2 tablespoons heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the filling in 2 muffin tins, dividing it evenly among the 8 cups.
  • Step 5
  • Place the spinach and Parmesan cheese in the third prepared pan, dividing the ingredients evenly among the 4 cups. In a large measuring cup, combine the egg whites, the remaining 1 tablespoon of heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the filling, dividing it evenly among the 4 cups.
  • Step 6
  • Cut three 5" x 8" pieces of foil and spray one side with cooking spray. Line each baking dish with a piece of foil, oiled side down.
  • Step 7
  • Pour 1 1/4 cups of water into a 6-quart multicooker. Stack the pans on top of each other in different directions on the rack and carefully transfer the rack with the pans into the multicooker. Following the manufacturer's instructions, close the lid and prepare the multicooker for use. Set the pressure cooker to high pressure for 35 minutes (see Note).
  • Step 8
  • Once the pressure cooker cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's instructions and allow the pressure to release naturally. After 15 minutes, being careful not to burn yourself with residual steam, open and remove the lid.
  • Step 9
  • Let the eggs cool slightly before turning them out onto a work surface. Wrap each egg in a tortilla to form a burrito, wrap in foil, and label. Transfer the wrapped burritos to 2-quart plastic freezer bags (6 per bag) and seal. Store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • Step 10
  • To reheat, unwrap the burrito, wrap it in a damp paper towel, and microwave for 4 minutes, turning once. Serve with your choice of hot sauce, salsa, or ketchup.

    Note

    Multicooker settings and modes may vary depending on the model. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.
