Servings: 4 burritos

Ingredients

  • 1 heaping cup spinach
  • 4 eggs
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • A pinch of pepper
  • ½ tablespoon pesto optional
  • 2-3 tablespoons cottage cheese optional
  • 1 cup shredded cheese of choice
  • 4 flour tortillas regular or whole-wheat
  • Mix-ins of choice: cheese bacon, ½ pound breakfast or Italian sausage, roast potatoes, avocado slices, salsa, hummus, everything but the bagel seasoning*

Instructions

  • Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk in the salt, pepper, pesto, and cottage cheese (if you don't like the texture of cottage cheese, you can blend it or simply omit it).
  • Heat a bit of butter or oil in a pan and wilt the spinach. Add the eggs and scramble until just cooked through. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
  • Heat a tortilla in the microwave for around 20 seconds, until puffed and pliable. Immediately fill the tortilla with a quarter of the eggs, ¼ cup of cheese, and your choice of toppings. Fold the right and left sides of the tortilla into the middle. Fold the bottom portion of the tortilla up and over the toppings and roll to form a burrito. Wrap in foil and repeat with the rest of the tortillas.
  • Serve the breakfast burritos while warm, or toast them in a hot pan, if desired.
  • The burritos will last three to five days in the fridge, or you may store them in the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat the burritos from frozen, remove the foil and microwave for 60-90 seconds.

Notes

*If you are not using any mix-ins, increase the number of eggs to 6.
