Burritos de Desayuno

Burritos de Desayuno are a delicious low-carb Mexican breakfast option, packed with savory scrambled eggs, fresh vegetables, and a hint of spicy chorizo, all wrapped in a fluffy, low-carb tortilla. A perfect way to start your day with a balance of flavor and nutrition.

Ingredients

• Eggs - 4 large
• Chorizo (crumbled) - 100 grams
• Red bell pepper (diced) - 1/2 cup
• Spinach (fresh) - 1 cup
• Onion (diced) - 1/4 cup
• Low-carb tortillas - 2 pieces
• Cheddar cheese (shredded) - 1/2 cup
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Fresh cilantro (chopped) - for garnish

Steps

1. In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the diced onion and red bell pepper until they are soft, about 3-4 minutes.
2. Add the crumbled chorizo to the skillet and cook until browned, stirring occasionally, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
4. In a bowl, whisk the eggs and season with salt and black pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the chorizo and vegetables.
5. Cook the eggs, stirring gently, until they are softly scrambled and just set, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
6. Warm the low-carb tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side.
7. Place half of the egg mixture in the center of each tortilla, sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese, and roll up tightly.
8. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
