Ingredients
- 8 oz Turkey sausage
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 8 Egg whites
- 2 cups Spinach, fresh
- 1 cup Tomatoes, diced
- 0.5 cup Red onion, diced
- 1 Avocado, sliced
- 4 Whole-grain tortillas
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 cup Low-fat cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Salsa
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Step 2
Add the turkey sausage to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, crumbling it with a spatula until it is fully cooked and no longer pink. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, pour in the egg whites and season with salt and black pepper. Cook while stirring gently to scramble the eggs for 3-4 minutes or until they are set.
Step 4
Add the spinach, diced tomatoes, and red onion to the skillet with the scrambled eggs. Stir well and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
Step 5
Return the cooked sausage to the skillet and mix everything well.
Step 6
Warm the whole-grain tortillas slightly in the microwave or on a dry skillet for a few seconds to make them pliable.
Step 7
Lay each tortilla flat and place an equal portion of the sausage, egg, and vegetable mixture in the center.
Step 8
Top each portion with sliced avocado, a sprinkle of shredded low-fat cheese, and a spoonful of salsa.
Step 9
Fold in the sides of the tortillas and then roll up the burrito tightly from the bottom.
Step 10
Serve warm, and enjoy your heart-healthy breakfast burrito!
