Ingredients
  

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1 cup bell peppers (any color), diced

1 small red onion, finely chopped

1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained

4 large eggs or 1 cup egg substitute

1/2 cup shredded low-fat cheese (optional)

1 avocado, sliced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

Salsa and fresh cilantro for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and diced bell peppers, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until softened.

    Stir in the chopped spinach and cumin, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until spinach wilts. Season with salt and pepper.

      In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs (or egg substitute) until well combined. Pour the eggs into the skillet, stirring gently to scramble with the veggie mixture until cooked through (about 3-5 minutes).

        Once cooked, remove the skillet from heat and stir in the black beans until warmed through and well combined.

          Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon an equal portion of the veggie and egg mixture onto the center of each tortilla. If desired, sprinkle shredded cheese and top with avocado slices.

            Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll up from the bottom to enclose the filling tightly.

              If desired, place the burritos seam side down in a skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes to toast and seal them.

                Serve warm with salsa and fresh cilantro, if using. Enjoy!
