Why Breakfast Burritos?
Breakfast burritos are not only tasty but also incredibly versatile and convenient. Whether you’re rushing out the door or enjoying a slow morning, they’re easy to make and even easier to customize with your favorite ingredients.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup of canned black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup of your favorite salsa
- 4 flour tortillas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the scrambled eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add one tablespoon of olive oil, pour in the eggs, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are fluffy and fully cooked.
- Warm the beans: In a separate pan, heat the black beans with a pinch of salt until they are thoroughly warmed.
- Assemble the burritos: Lay out the tortillas and evenly distribute the scrambled eggs, warmed beans, shredded cheese, and salsa among them. Fold the bottom of the tortilla up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll up tightly.
