In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, low-fat milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is heated, add the diced red bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the chopped baby spinach to the skillet and cook for another minute until wilted.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour the egg mixture into the other side.
Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then gently stir and scramble until fully cooked, combining with the sautéed vegetables.
Warm the whole-grain tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
Place an equal portion of the scrambled egg and vegetable mixture in the center of each tortilla.
Top with black beans, shredded cheddar cheese, slices of avocado, and a spoonful of salsa.
Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll them tightly into burritos.
Serve the healthy breakfast burritos immediately, or wrap them in foil for an on-the-go meal.
