Description

Delicious and hearty breakfast burritos loaded with eggs, cheese, and your choice of bacon and veggies, perfect for any morning.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
  • 1 cup cooked and diced turkey bacon, beef bacon, or chicken bacon
  • 1 cup black beans (canned or cooked)
  • 1 cup diced bell peppers (red, green, or a mix)
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Salsa or hot sauce for serving (optional)
  • Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Start by whisking the eggs in a bowl, adding garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper to taste.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a splash of olive oil or cooking spray.
  3. Once hot, toss in the diced onion and bell peppers, sautéing them until they’re tender and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the veggies and let it cook for a few minutes, stirring gently until the eggs are fully cooked and set.
  5. Right before the eggs are done, fold in the black beans and the cooked turkey bacon.
  6. Take a large tortilla and spoon a generous amount of the egg mixture down the center.
  7. Sprinkle cheese liberally on top.
  8. Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it from the bottom, creating a snug burrito.
  9. Place the burrito seam-side down in the skillet and allow it to crisp up for about 2-3 minutes on each side.
  10. Once golden and crispy, remove the burrito from the skillet, cut it in half, and sprinkle with fresh cilantro if desired.

Notes

Storage tips: Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days or freeze for up to a month. Reheat in microwave or oven.
