Description
A delicious and nutritious high-protein breakfast burrito to fuel your morning.
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup egg whites
- 1/2 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup diced bell pepper
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 whole wheat tortillas (8-inch)
- 1/4 avocado, sliced
- Salsa, for serving
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, salt, pepper, and cumin until well combined.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, sautéing for about 3-4 minutes until softened.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the veggies. Cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are just set, about 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in the black beans and cheddar cheese, cooking for an additional minute until the cheese is melted.
- Remove the skillet from heat. Place a tortilla on a flat surface and spoon half of the egg mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Top with avocado slices.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up from the bottom to form a burrito. Repeat with the second tortilla and remaining filling.
- Serve warm with salsa on the side.
Notes
- For added flavor, try incorporating cooked sausage or turkey bacon into the filling.
- Substitute the black beans with cooked quinoa for a different texture and flavor profile.
