Ingredients
  

  • 2 tsp canola oil
  • ½ small red onion, diced (1 cup)
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
  • 1 cup drained, rinsed canned black beans, preferably low-sodium
  • ¼ tsp chili flakes
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 eggs and eggs white
  • ⅓ cup (about 1 1/2 ounce) shredded pepper Jack cheese
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 4 (10 inch) whole wheat tortillas (burrito size)
  • ¼ cup reduced fat-free sour cream or 2 percent plain Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup salsa
  • 1 large tomato, (4 ounces) seeded and diced
  • 1 small avocado (4 ounces), cubed
  • Hot sauce

Instructions
 

  • Heat the canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over a medium-high heat. Cook the onions and peppers until onions are softened and peppers are slightly charred, about 8 minutes. Add black beans and red pepper flakes and cook until warmed through, another 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a dish.
  • Whisk together the eggs and egg whites then stir in the cheese. Spray the skillet with cooking spray, and reheat the skillet over a medium heat. Reduce heat to low and add eggs, scrambling until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Spread each tortilla with 1 tablespoon each sour cream (or yogurt) and salsa, then layer with 1/4 of the black bean mixture, 1/4 of the scrambled eggs, some diced tomato and 1/4 of the avocado. Season, to taste, with hot sauce. Roll up burrito-style and serve.
