Main Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Flour tortillas
  • 4 large Eggs For a plant-based option, use scrambled tofu.
  • 1 cup Cheese (cheddar or your choice) Try pepper jack for a kick or mozzarella for a milder flavor.
  • 1 cup Bell peppers (any color, chopped) Customize with your favorite colors.
  • 1 medium Onion, chopped
  • 2 cups Spinach, fresh Use frozen spinach if fresh is unavailable, ensure to drain well.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Adjust to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper Adjust to taste.
  • 1/2 cup Salsa (optional) Use your favorite variety.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped bell peppers and onions, sautéing until softened—about 5 minutes.
  • Add the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, less than a minute.
  • In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper. Let sit for five minutes before cooking for extra fluffiness.
  • Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and stir occasionally, cooking until fully set—about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • In another skillet, heat the tortillas on each side until warm, making them pliable.
  • Place a generous portion of the egg mixture onto the center of each tortilla, sprinkle with cheese, and add salsa if desired.
  • Fold the sides of the tortilla, roll it tightly from bottom to top, and secure with a toothpick if serving upright.
  • Serve immediately or wrap in foil for later. Enjoy within a week when refrigerated or freeze for longer storage.

Notes

For a festive touch, serve burritos on a platter with fresh herbs or sliced avocado. Create a burrito bar for guests to customize.
