This perfect protein-based breakfast is easy to prepare the night before for a fast flavorful start to your day.

Ingredients

• Cooking Spray
• 1 1/3 cups liquid egg whites
• 1 15.5-ounce can no-salt-added black beans, rinsed and drained
• 4 6-inch whole-wheat tortillas (lowest sodium available)
• 2 medium avocados, sliced
• 1/4 cup hot sauce or salsa (lowest sodium available) (optional)

Instructions

1. Lightly spray a large skillet with cooking spray. Heat over medium heat.
2. Pour the egg whites into the skillet, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula to scramble. Cook until the eggs are almost set. Add the beans, stirring until combined and heated through.
3. Microwave the tortillas on 100% power (high) for 45 seconds. (This makes them pliable and easier to roll.) Transfer to a work surface.
4. Spread the egg mixture in the center of each tortilla.
5. Top with the avocado and hot sauce/salsa.
6. For each burrito, fold two sides of the tortilla toward the center. Starting from the unfolded side closest to you, roll the burrito toward the remaining unfolded side to enclose the filling. Transfer with the seam side down to plates.
