Description

Healthy breakfast burrito with turkey sausage, scrambled eggs, and veggies. A high protein, meal prep friendly breakfast ready in 25 minutes.


Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey breakfast sausage
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup diced yellow onion
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach chopped
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 large whole wheat tortillas
  • 1/2 cup salsa


Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey sausage and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, breaking it into crumbles, until fully cooked and browned. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper until well combined.
  3. In the same skillet, add olive oil. Add diced bell pepper and onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened. Stir in chopped spinach and cook for 1 minute until wilted.
  4. Reduce heat to medium low. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Gently stir with a spatula, cooking for 3 to 4 minutes until the eggs are softly set but not dry.
  5. Stir the cooked turkey sausage back into the skillet and sprinkle in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Mix gently and remove from heat.
  6. Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a dry skillet for about 20 seconds per side until soft and pliable.
  7. Divide the egg and sausage mixture evenly among the tortillas. Top each with shredded cheddar cheese and 2 tablespoons salsa.
  8. Fold in the sides and roll tightly into burritos. Serve immediately or wrap tightly in foil for meal prep.
