Ingredients
  

8 large eggs

1 cup egg whites

1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup diced bell peppers (mixed colors)

1 cup diced onions

1 cup cooked and crumbled turkey sausage or turkey bacon

1 cup shredded low-fat cheese (like cheddar or pepper jack)

1 cup spinach, chopped

1 tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp black pepper

Whole wheat tortillas (8 medium)

Salsa or hot sauce for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan (about 18x13 inches) with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the large eggs, egg whites, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.

      Sauté Vegetables and Meat: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a splash of cooking spray and sauté the diced onions and bell peppers until they are softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the spinach and cook until wilted (about 1-2 minutes). Add in the cooked turkey sausage or turkey bacon, and mix to combine.

        Combine Ingredients: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the black beans. Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed ingredients in the skillet and gently mix to combine.

          Pour into Sheet Pan: Carefully pour the egg and vegetable mixture onto the prepared sheet pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the eggs are set and lightly golden on top.

            Assemble Burritos: Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Use a spatula to loosen the edges and then cut the sheet into square portions. Each portion can be placed into a whole wheat tortilla, topped with a sprinkle of cheese, and rolled tightly into a burrito.

              Serve or Store: You can serve immediately with salsa or hot sauce or wrap them tightly in foil and store in the fridge for meal prep. To reheat, simply microwave for about 1-2 minutes.

                Enjoy: Enjoy your high-protein, macro-friendly breakfast burritos on-the-go or at the table!
