Ingredients

• 4 pieces large eggs
• 2 tablespoons whole milk
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 piece jalapeño pepper, finely diced
• 0.5 piece red bell pepper, finely diced
• 0.25 piece onion, finely diced
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoons chili powder
• 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 pieces large flour tortillas
• 0.25 cup salsa
• 0.5 piece avocado, sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 2

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.

Step 3

Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbling, add the diced jalapeño pepper, red bell pepper, and onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes or until the vegetables have softened.

Step 4

Stir in the ground cumin and chili powder, then pour the egg mixture into the skillet.

Step 5

Gently stir the eggs with a spatula, cooking over medium-low heat until they are scrambled and cooked through but still soft and creamy, about 4-5 minutes.

Step 6

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the scrambled eggs and fold gently until the cheese is melted. Remove the skillet from heat.

Step 7

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.

Step 8

To assemble each burrito, layer half of the scrambled egg mixture in the center of a tortilla. Top with salsa, sliced avocado, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

Step 9

Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll it tightly from the bottom upward to form a burrito.

Step 10

Repeat with the second tortilla and remaining ingredients. Serve immediately and enjoy!
