Ingredients

• 4 pieces large flour tortillas
• 6 large eggs
• 250 grams chorizo
• 1 cup black beans
• 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 piece red bell pepper, diced
• 1 small yellow onion, diced
• 1 piece jalapeño, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 piece avocado, sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 cup salsa

Directions

Step 1

In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook for 5-7 minutes or until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 2

In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and sauté the diced onion, red bell pepper, and jalapeño for 3-4 minutes, or until softened.

Step 3

Add the black beans to the skillet with the vegetables and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then remove the mixture from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet and cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until scrambled and fully cooked.

Step 5

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them pliable.

Step 6

To assemble each burrito, spoon some of the chorizo, black beans and vegetable mixture, scrambled eggs, shredded cheese, avocado slices, and salsa onto the center of a tortilla. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro.

Step 7

Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly into a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.

Step 8

Serve immediately, or wrap each burrito in foil for a grab-and-go option.
