Dice the red bell pepper and small yellow onion into small pieces.
In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the black beans to the skillet, along with the ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through. Remove the mixture from the skillet and set aside.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until blended. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Pour in the beaten eggs. Stir occasionally until the eggs are scrambled and fully cooked, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the spinach to the scrambled eggs and cook until it just begins to wilt, about 1 minute.
Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave for about 20 seconds to make them pliable.
Lay each tortilla on a flat surface. Divide the bean mixture, scrambled eggs with spinach, grated cheddar cheese, and salsa evenly among the tortillas.
Dice the avocado and add a portion to each burrito.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it up from the bottom to form a burrito.
Serve immediately, optionally with extra salsa or sour cream on the side.
