BLACK BEAN BREAKFAST WRAPS
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp canola oil
- 1 cup diced onion
- 1 cup diced red bell pepper
- 1/2 cup frozen kernel corn
- 1 can (14 oz/398 mL) black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp oregano, crumbled
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
- 8 large eggs
- 1 tbsp canola oil
- 8 whole wheat flour tortillas (10 inch)
- 1/2 cup shredded aged white cheddar cheese
- 2 Roma tomatoes, cored and diced
- 1 ripe avocado, diced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Directions
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large non-stick frypan over medium heat. Add onion and red pepper; sauté until softened, about 2 minutes.
- Add corn and cook, stirring, until heated through. Remove from heat.
- Transfer onion mixture to a plate; set aside.
- Add beans, water, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper to same frypan; stir to combine. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until water is evaporated, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Partially mash bean mixture with a potato masher; set aside.
- Whisk together eggs until blended.
- To scramble eggs, heat 1 tbsp oil in a medium non-stick frypan over medium heat. Add eggs and cook, uncovered, lifting edges of eggs occasionally with a spatula, allowing uncooked eggs to run underneath, until eggs are cooked through. Remove from heat.
- Spread about 1/4 cup bean mixture down centre of each tortilla. Top each with 1/4 cup onion mixture, 1/4 cup scrambled eggs and 1 tbsp cheese. Dividing equally, sprinkle each with tomatoes, avocado and cilantro. Roll up tortillas to enclose filling.
