Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 soft flour tortillas
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
  • 1/2 cup fresh salsa
  • 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Toppings

  • Sour cream
  • Avocado slices
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add finely chopped onions and bell peppers, sautéing until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Cook the Eggs: Push the sautéed veggies to the side of the skillet. Crack in the eggs and scramble gently until just set but still moist. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Warm the Beans: Add the black beans to the pan and heat through, mixing gently with the eggs and vegetables to create a hearty filling.
  4. Assemble the Burritos: Warm the flour tortillas on a skillet or microwave until pliable. Spoon the egg, bean, and vegetable mixture onto each tortilla. Sprinkle generously with shredded cheese and add a few spoonfuls of fresh salsa.
  5. Roll and Serve: Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then tightly roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling. Serve immediately with extra salsa on the side or wrap for on-the-go.

Notes

  • Warm tortillas briefly to prevent cracking and make rolling easier.
  • Keep scrambled eggs soft and creamy by not overcooking.
  • Use fresh or high-quality salsa for vibrant flavor.
  • Customize cheese choice for sharpness or creaminess.
  • If wrapping for later, secure burritos with foil to keep warm and prevent sogginess.
