02 - 1 small zucchini, diced
03 - ½ red onion, finely chopped
04 - 1 cup baby spinach, chopped
05 - 1 small tomato, seeded and diced

→ Protein & Dairy

06 - 6 large eggs
07 - ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese or plant-based alternative
08 - ¼ cup milk, dairy or plant-based
09 - ½ cup black beans, drained and rinsed

→ Wrap & Toppings

10 - 4 large whole wheat tortillas
11 - ½ avocado, sliced
12 - ¼ cup salsa

→ Spices & Seasonings

14 - ½ tsp ground cumin
15 - ¼ tsp smoked paprika
16 - ¼ tsp salt
17 - ¼ tsp black pepper
18 - 1 tbsp olive oil

# Method:

01 - Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, red bell pepper, and zucchini. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.
02 - Stir in chopped spinach and diced tomato. Cook for 2 minutes until spinach wilts. Add black beans, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir and cook for an additional minute. Remove mixture from heat and set aside.
03 - Whisk eggs and milk in a bowl until combined. Pour into the same skillet and scramble gently over medium heat until just set. Remove from heat and fold in shredded cheese.
04 - Heat tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat or microwave for 20 seconds until pliable.
05 - Lay each tortilla flat and layer with the vegetable mixture, scrambled eggs, avocado slices, and a spoonful of salsa. Sprinkle chopped cilantro on top if desired.
06 - Fold the sides of each tortilla inward, then roll tightly from bottom to top. Serve immediately or wrap in foil for a portable option.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in half an hour and you can actually taste each ingredient instead of eating something mushy and forgettable.
  • You can wrap it up and take it with you, which means breakfast doesn't have to compete with your schedule.
  • The vegetables stay bright and slightly firm because you're not overcooking them, and the eggs stay creamy.
02 -
  • Cold tortillas will crack when you roll them, so never skip the warming step—it's non-negotiable.
  • The order of assembly matters more than you'd think; putting eggs on top of hot vegetables keeps the avocado from getting warm, and warm avocado is nobody's friend.
03 -
  • Toast your cumin and paprika for thirty seconds in the hot oil before adding vegetables—it awakens the spices and makes the entire burrito taste more intentional.
  • If your tortillas are thin or you're nervous about them tearing, warm them between damp paper towels in the microwave instead of a dry skillet for extra flexibility.
