Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- 0.25 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 0.5 small red onion, diced
- 2 cups spinach leaves
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 avocado
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 8 large Romaine lettuce leaves
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and almond milk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced bell pepper and red onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until vegetables are softened.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 2 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Stir gently and continuously until the eggs are fully cooked and scrambled to your preferred consistency, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork until smooth. Stir in lime juice and chopped cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste for your avocado-cilantro sauce.
Lay the lettuce leaves flat on a clean work surface. Evenly distribute the scrambled egg mixture across the leaves.
Top each with a spoonful of the avocado-cilantro sauce and scatter some cherry tomato halves on each.
Fold the sides of each lettuce leaf over the filling and roll tightly to form a burrito. Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 breakfast burritos!
