- 1 cup Baby spinach
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Step 1
In a medium bowl, crack and whisk the eggs with black pepper and garlic powder.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the diced red bell pepper and cook for 2 minutes until softened.
Step 4
Add the baby spinach and canned black beans to the skillet, cooking for another 2 minutes until the spinach is wilted.

Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet, stirring continuously, and scramble until they are fully cooked and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 6
Reduce the heat to low, sprinkle the low sodium cheddar cheese over the scrambled eggs, and let it melt slowly.
Step 7
Meanwhile, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for easier rolling, if desired.
Step 8

Step 9
Roll the tortillas up tightly into burritos, tucking in the sides as you roll.
Step 10
Serve immediately, garnished with fresh chopped cilantro if using.
