Ingredients
  

  • 1 14.5 oz can refried beans or use my Easy Refried Bean recipe

  • 1 cup pepper jack or cheddar cheese shredded (or plant-based cheese)
  • Salsa use store bought brand of your choice

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, Beat eggs with a little water and salt. Heat a large non-stick pan. Pour eggs into the pan and cook until desired doneness (about 3-5 minutes).
  • Remove eggs from heat and fold in ¼ cup of desired cheese
  • Spread 1/4 cup of beans on each tortilla, divide egg mixture on top of the beans, and add the remaining cheese.
  • Scoop 2 tablespoons of salsa over each tortilla. Then roll the tortilla by folding the sides over the filling and roll up from the bottom.
  • Serve with remaining salsa and refried beans.

Notes

MELISSA’S MODIFICATION
I love making breakfast burritos for breakfast or brunch. They are easy to make and packed with flavor and nutrition to get your day started.
The refried beans are filled with fiber, vitamins, and protein. I have made them with regular eggs and cheese, and with plant-based eggs and non-dairy cheese. Both ways are delicious!
