• Prep Time: 10 minutes
• Cook Time: 5 minutes
• Total Time: 15 minutes
• Servings: 4
• Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients

• 4 whole-wheat tortillas
• 6 large eggs
• 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
• 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or any preferred variety)
• 1/4 cup milk
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salsa, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2 minutes.
3. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach. Cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are scrambled and set to your desired consistency, 3-4 minutes.
4. While the eggs are cooking, warm the tortillas on another skillet or in the microwave until soft and pliable.
5. Once the eggs are ready, divide the mixture evenly among the warmed tortillas. Sprinkle each with shredded cheese. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll them up tightly to form burritos.
6. Optionally, slice the burritos in half for an enticing display of the filling. Serve with a side of salsa for added flavor and brightness.

Helpful Tips

For a creamier texture, you can add a small knob of butter to the egg mixture while cooking. Variations could include adding diced tomatoes, bell peppers, or mushrooms for additional flavor and nutrients. This makes the recipe versatile and can cater to different family members’ tastes.

Storage Instructions

Store any leftover burritos in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, wrap in foil and warm in an oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes or until heated through.

Pairing Suggestions

This Egg & Spinach Breakfast Burrito pairs wonderfully with a fresh fruit salad, a hot cup of coffee, or a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice. For a more indulgent meal, serve with crispy hash browns or a slice of avocado toast.
