Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 slices cooked bacon
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
- 2 cups, fresh spinach
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the red bell pepper to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Remove the vegetable mixture from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, pour in the whisked eggs and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula to create soft-scrambled eggs. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Crumble the cooked bacon into bite-sized pieces and stir them into the scrambled eggs.
Return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet with the eggs and bacon, stirring to combine.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the mixture and let it melt for 1 minute. Add hot sauce if desired, then stir gently to incorporate.
Remove the skillet from heat. Serve the filling warm inside tortillas for breakfast burritos, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
