  • Sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Red pepper flakes
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • ½ cup shredded red cabbage optional
  • 3 large 12-inch tortillas
  • 9 scrambled eggs
  • ¾ cup cooked black beans drained and rinsed
  • ½ cup pico de gallo
  • 1 ripe avocado sliced
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 lime

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the diced potatoes on the baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
  • Season with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
  • Toss to coat evenly and spread into a single layer.
  • Roast for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  • Meanwhile, heat a grill pan over medium heat.
  • Grill the red bell pepper for 4 to 5 minutes per side until softened and charred.
  • Remove the pepper, discard the stem and seeds, and slice into strips.
  • Warm the tortillas slightly to make them easier to roll.
  • Divide spinach and red cabbage among the tortillas.
  • Add scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, grilled peppers, black beans, pico de gallo, avocado slices, and cilantro.
  • Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Squeeze fresh lime juice over the filling.
  • Fold in the sides of each tortilla.
  • Roll tightly from the bottom to create a burrito.
  • Wrap in foil if desired, slice in half, and serve with Cilantro Lime Dressing.

Notes

  • Swap black beans for pinto beans if preferred.
  • Fresh salsa can replace pico de gallo.
  • Add sautéed mushrooms or onions for more vegetables.
  • Cilantro Lime Dressing adds a fresh and tangy finish.
