Time 38m

Yield 4 servings, serving size 1 burrito

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 teaspoons canola oil
1/2 small red onion, diced (1 cup)
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 cup drained, rinsed canned black beans, preferably low-sodium
1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 eggs and 4 egg whites
1/3 cup (about 1 1/2 ounce) shredded pepper Jack cheese
Nonstick cooking spray
4 (10 inch) whole wheat tortillas (burrito size)
1/4 cup reduced fat-free sour cream or 2 percent plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup salsa
1 large tomato, (4 ounces) seeded and diced
1 small avocado (4 ounces), cubed
Hot sauce

Steps:

  • Heat the canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over a medium-high heat. Cook the onions and peppers until onions are softened and peppers are slightly charred, about 8 minutes. Add black beans and red pepper flakes and cook until warmed through, another 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a dish.
  • Whisk together the eggs and egg whites then stir in the cheese. Spray the skillet with cooking spray, and reheat the skillet over a medium heat. Reduce heat to low and add eggs, scrambling until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Spread each tortilla with 1 tablespoon each sour cream (or yogurt) and salsa, then layer with 1/4 of the black bean mixture, 1/4 of the scrambled eggs, some diced tomato and 1/4 of the avocado. Season, to taste, with hot sauce. Roll up burrito-style and serve.

Tips:

  • Meal Prep: Save time and energy by preparing the breakfast burritos ahead of time and freezing them for later.
  • Versatile Fillings: Feel free to customize the fillings to your liking. Try different combinations of vegetables, proteins, and cheeses.
  • Fresh Ingredients: Use the freshest ingredients possible for the best flavor and texture.
  • Spice Level: Adjust the amount of chili powder and cayenne pepper to your desired spice level.
  • Cooking the Peppers: For a smoky flavor, roast the peppers over an open flame or under a broiler. Alternatively, sauté them in a skillet until tender.
  • Tortillas: Use high-quality tortillas that are soft and pliable. Warm them up in a skillet or microwave before assembling the burritos.
  • Rolling Technique: Place the filling off-center on the tortilla, fold the sides in, and then roll it up tightly. Secure with a toothpick or skewer if needed.
