Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large flour tortillas (or gluten-free tortillas)
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (or plant-based milk)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 cup spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or dairy-free)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Salsa
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and aromatic.
  3. Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and continue cooking for another 1 to 2 minutes until the spinach wilts.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Gently scramble, stirring frequently, for about 4 to 5 minutes or until the eggs are set but still moist.
  5. Remove from heat and let the scramble cool slightly. Meanwhile, lay out your tortillas on a flat surface.
  6. Evenly distribute the egg mixture across each tortilla. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the filling.
  7. Roll up each tortilla tightly, folding in the sides to securely encase the filling.
  8. To store, wrap each burrito in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then place in a freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to one month.
  9. When ready to enjoy, unwrap the burrito. You can microwave on high for 1 to 2 minutes, wrap it in foil and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10 to 15 minutes, or warm it in a skillet over medium-low heat.
  10. Serve with salsa and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro for added freshness.

Notes

Cool the egg filling slightly before wrapping in tortillas to prevent sogginess. Store tightly wrapped to avoid freezer burn.
