Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey Lean ground turkey works best for a healthy option.
- 1 cup black beans Rinsed and drained for better flavor.
- 1 cup egg whites Whip them for a fluffier texture.
- 1 cup shredded cheese Cheddar or a blend adds a nice taste.
- 1 tsp cumin
- 0.5 tsp salt Adjust according to taste.
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 4 large whole wheat tortillas These are healthier and keep the burritos hearty.
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Start by heating a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey, cooking it until it's nicely browned and cooked through, which should take about 5 minutes. Don't forget to break it up as it cooks!
- Add the black beans, egg whites, cumin, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook for another 3-5 minutes, just until the egg whites are set and the mixture is heated through.
- Prepare your tortillas by laying them flat. Evenly distribute the turkey and bean mixture on each tortilla and sprinkle with shredded cheese.
- Roll up each tortilla tightly to form burritos. Ensure they're sealed well so nothing spills out during cooking.
- Return the skillet to the heat and cook the burritos seam-side down for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Slice the burritos in half, serve warm, and enjoy your protein-packed breakfast!
