Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the burritos
  • 4 pieces Whole Wheat Tortillas
  • 6 large Eggs Provide protein and richness
  • 2 cups Spinach Adds nutrients and color
  • 1 can Black Beans Drained and rinsed for fiber and texture
  • 1 cup Bell Peppers Chopped for sweet and crunchy flavor
  • 1 medium Onion Chopped for aromatic depth
  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese Shredded for melting

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather all your ingredients and measure them out for ease.
  2. Chop the bell peppers and onion into small, even pieces.
  3. Rinse the spinach and let it dry.
  4. In a large bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well blended.
Cooking
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of cooking spray or oil.
  2. Add the chopped onions and bell peppers, sautéing until softened, approximately 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the spinach until wilted, about 2 minutes.
  4. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, scrambling them until fully cooked.
  5. Remove from heat and fold in the black beans and cheddar cheese until melted.
Assembly
  1. Place a generous amount of the egg mixture onto the center of each tortilla.
  2. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it from the bottom up to create a burrito.
  3. Wrap each burrito tightly in foil or plastic wrap for storage.

Notes

Try adding a dash of hot sauce to the egg mixture for an extra kick. Make sure not to overcook the eggs to maintain a creamy texture. Use a high-quality non-stick skillet to prevent sticking. Let the burritos cool completely before wrapping to avoid condensation.
