Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/4 cup salsa or hot sauce
  • Optional toppings: avocado slices, cilantro, lime wedges

Instructions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes until tender.
  • 2. In a bowl, whisk eggs with milk. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, then scramble eggs until just set.
  • 3. Warm tortillas briefly to make them pliable.
  • 4. Assemble burritos by layering roasted sweet potatoes, scrambled eggs, black beans, cheese, and a spoonful of salsa.
  • 5. Roll up tightly, folding in sides as you go.
  • 6. Serve immediately or wrap in foil for a grab-and-go breakfast.
  • 7. For meal prep, let burritos cool, wrap individually, and freeze for up to 2 months.

Notes

  • Reheat frozen burritos in the microwave or oven for a quick breakfast.
  • Swap black beans with pinto beans or add cooked sausage for extra protein.
  • Use whole wheat tortillas for a higher-fiber option.
