Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 slices cooked bacon
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium, diced onion
  • 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
  • 2 cups, fresh spinach
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Add the red bell pepper to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Step 4

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Remove the vegetable mixture from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, pour in the whisked eggs and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula to create soft-scrambled eggs. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Step 6

Crumble the cooked bacon into bite-sized pieces and stir them into the scrambled eggs.

Step 7

Return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet with the eggs and bacon, stirring to combine.

Step 8

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the mixture and let it melt for 1 minute. Add hot sauce if desired, then stir gently to incorporate.

Step 9

Remove the skillet from heat. Serve the filling warm inside tortillas for breakfast burritos, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
