Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large flour tortillas
- 6 large eggs
- 250 grams chorizo
- 1 cup black beans
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 piece red bell pepper, diced
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 1 piece jalapeño, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 piece avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 0.5 cup salsa
Instructions
In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook for 5-7 minutes or until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and sauté the diced onion, red bell pepper, and jalapeño for 3-4 minutes, or until softened.
Add the black beans to the skillet with the vegetables and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then remove the mixture from the skillet and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet and cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until scrambled and fully cooked.
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them pliable.
To assemble each burrito, spoon some of the chorizo, black beans and vegetable mixture, scrambled eggs, shredded cheese, avocado slices, and salsa onto the center of a tortilla. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly into a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
Serve immediately, or wrap each burrito in foil for a grab-and-go option.
