Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Egg whites
- 4 8-inch Whole wheat tortillas
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 0.5 medium Onion
- 2 cups Spinach leaves
- 0.5 cup Low-fat cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Black beans
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 1 spritz Olive oil cooking spray
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Dice the red bell pepper and onion into small, uniform pieces.
Spray a medium-sized non-stick skillet with olive oil cooking spray and preheat it over medium heat.
Add the diced red bell pepper and onion to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened.
Add the spinach leaves to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until wilted.
While the vegetables are cooking, whisk the egg whites in a small bowl with salt and pepper.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the egg whites into the skillet with the vegetables.
Gently stir the mixture with a spatula, cooking until the egg whites are set but still soft, about 3-4 minutes.
Warm the tortillas in a microwave or on a skillet for a few seconds to make them pliable.
Place each tortilla on a flat surface and evenly distribute the egg white and vegetable mixture among them.
Top each with black beans, a sprinkle of low-fat cheddar cheese, and a spoonful of salsa.
Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll them up tightly into burritos.
Serve immediately while warm, or wrap each burrito in foil if taking them to-go.
