Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 egg whites
• 200 g turkey sausage
• 240 g black beans, drained and rinsed
• 8 small corn tortillas
• 1 red bell pepper, diced
• 3 green onions, chopped
• 100 g cheddar cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 100 ml salsa

Directions

Step 1

Begin by heating 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and turkey sausage; cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the sausage is browned and fully cooked.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk the eggs and egg whites together with salt and pepper until well combined.

Step 3

Add the cooked sausage and peppers into the egg mixture, along with the black beans. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and pour in the egg mixture. Stir regularly to scramble the eggs, cooking for about 5 minutes or until the eggs are fully set.

Step 5

While the eggs are cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate small skillet until they are pliable, about 1-2 minutes on each side.

Step 6

To assemble the tacos, place a spoonful of the egg and sausage mixture onto each tortilla. Top with chopped green onions, shredded cheddar cheese, fresh cilantro, and a dollop of salsa.

Step 7

Serve immediately and enjoy your high protein breakfast tacos while they're warm!
