Description

A delicious and nutritious breakfast option featuring eggs, spinach, and a savory peanut butter sauce wrapped in whole wheat tortillas.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach
  • 1 small red bell pepper, diced (optional)
  • 2 large whole wheat tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for sweetness)
  • 1 tablespoon warm water (to thin peanut butter, if needed)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add butter and allow to melt. Add the diced bell pepper (if using) and sauté for 2 minutes until slightly softened. Add spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted (about 1 minute).
  3. Pour in the egg mixture. Gently scramble until eggs are just set but still soft. Remove from heat.
  4. In a separate small bowl, mix peanut butter with honey and warm water until smooth and drizzle-able.
  5. Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 10–15 seconds to make them pliable.
  6. Divide the scrambled egg and spinach mixture evenly between the tortillas. Drizzle each with the peanut butter sauce. Roll up each tortilla tightly, tucking in the sides to form a burrito. Slice in half and serve warm.
