½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar or pepper jack)
1 small bell pepper, diced
1 small onion, diced
2 whole wheat tortillas
Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking spray or olive oil
Instructions
-
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray or olive oil.
-
Add the diced bell pepper and onion to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.
-
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the vegetables.
-
Allow the eggs to cook, stirring occasionally, until they are scrambled and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.
-
Add the black beans to the skillet and stir them into the egg mixture. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat the beans through.
-
Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the egg and bean mixture. Let it melt slightly.
-
Warm the tortillas in another skillet or microwave for a few seconds until soft.
-
Divide the egg and bean mixture evenly between the two tortillas. Roll them up into burritos.
-
Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
For added spice, try adding diced jalapeños or a few dashes of hot sauce to the eggs.
