Ingredients

  • Egg whites 6 large
  • Black beans 1/4 cup
  • Whole wheat tortilla 1 medium
  • Salsa 1/4 cup
  • Olive oil 1 tsp

Method

  1. Prepare Ingredients. Gather all ingredients. If using canned black beans, rinse and drain them well under cold water. Measure out the egg whites, salsa, and olive oil.
    Tip: Rinsing canned beans reduces sodium and improves flavor.
  2. Heat the Pan. Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Let it warm up for about 1 minute until shimmering but not smoking.
    Tip: Use medium heat to avoid burning the oil.
  3. Cook the Egg Whites. Pour the 6 large egg whites into the heated pan. Stir gently with a spatula to scramble them evenly. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the egg whites are fully set and no longer runny.
    Tip: Stir continuously to get fluffy scrambled egg whites.
  4. Warm the Black Beans. Add the 1/4 cup of black beans to the pan with the cooked egg whites. Stir gently and cook together for 1-2 minutes until the beans are warmed through.
    Tip: Warming the beans with the eggs helps blend flavors.
  5. Heat the Tortilla. In a separate dry skillet or microwave, warm the whole wheat tortilla for about 20 seconds until soft and pliable. This makes it easier to roll without cracking.
    Tip: If using a skillet, warm each side for about 15 seconds.
  6. Assemble the Burrito. Place the warmed tortilla flat on a plate. Spoon the egg whites and black beans mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Add 1/4 cup of salsa on top.
    Tip: Leave space at the edges to fold the tortilla easily.
  7. Roll the Burrito. Fold one side of the tortilla over the filling, then fold in the sides and continue rolling tightly until the burrito is sealed.
    Tip: Rolling tightly helps keep the filling inside while eating.
  8. Serve and Enjoy. Cut the burrito in half if desired and serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your nutritious and delicious breakfast burrito!
    Tip: Pair with fresh fruit or a glass of juice for a complete meal.

Pro tips
