Ingredients
- 4 slices turkey bacon
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 4 large egg whites
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium avocado
- 2 large whole-grain tortilla
- 0.5 cup low-fat shredded cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
Directions
Step 1
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Step 2
Add turkey bacon slices to the skillet; cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels.
Step 3
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add egg whites. Stir gently to scramble until fully cooked, then add salt, black pepper, and paprika. Transfer to a separate plate.
Step 4
Add spinach to the skillet, and sauté for about 2 minutes or until wilted.
Step 5
Wash and halve the cherry tomatoes, and dice the avocado.
Step 6
Warm the whole-grain tortillas in a microwave or oven until pliable.
Step 7
To assemble the burritos, lay each tortilla flat and evenly distribute the egg whites, bacon, sautéed spinach, cherry tomatoes, and diced avocado along the center of each tortilla.
Step 8
Sprinkle low-fat shredded cheese on top of the fillings.
Step 9
Fold the sides of each tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly to form a burrito.
Step 10
Slice each burrito in half and serve immediately.
