Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 cups fresh spinach
Vegetables and Produce:
- 1 cup bell peppers, chopped (any color)
- 1 ripe avocado
Tortillas and Seasonings:
- 4 large whole wheat tortillas
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare bell peppers by meticulously dicing into uniform pieces and thoroughly cleanse black beans under cool running water.
- Warm olive oil in a skillet at medium temperature, allowing it to shimmer and distribute evenly across the cooking surface.
- Introduce chopped bell peppers to the skillet, sautéing until they transform into a tender, slightly caramelized state (approximately 5-7 minutes).
- Gently incorporate fresh spinach leaves, stirring until they gracefully wilt and reduce in volume.
- Blend black beans into the vegetable mixture, sprinkling cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper to enhance the flavor profile.
- Allow the combined ingredients to simmer and meld together, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes to develop depth of taste.
- Position tortillas on a clean, flat workspace and lavishly spread creamy mashed avocado across each surface.
- Carefully distribute the aromatic vegetable and bean mixture to the center of each tortilla, ensuring even placement.
- Execute a precise folding technique by tucking in the tortilla sides, then roll with deliberate, tight motions to create a secure enclosure.
Notes
- Save time by chopping vegetables and preparing ingredients in advance, allowing for quick morning assembly.
- Experiment with different spices like smoked paprika or chili powder to customize flavor profiles and keep breakfast exciting.
- For gluten-free options, swap regular tortillas with large lettuce wraps or gluten-free tortillas made from alternative grains.
- Meal prep these burritos by preparing filling in bulk and storing separately, enabling quick wrapping and reheating throughout the week.
