Classic Black Bean Breakfast Burritos

These classic black bean burritos are the most perfect protein filled vegetarian breakfast. They are protein packed with things like eggs and beans, and also include plenty of fiber and healthy facts with the inclusion of avocado and roasted vegetables. Lastly, it checks of the carb box with roasted potatoes and a flour tortilla. Additionally, they're perfect to make easily customizable which means it's a dish everyone will like! Burritos are also one of the best freezer meals meaning it's great for big batch meal prep is places like food kitchens such as Miriam's Kitchen. Here's a more detailed breakdown of some of the ingredients:

• Eggs – High in protein and fat; yolks add richness and calories. Adding cheese also increasing the protein and fat content as well! Also eggs are a complete protein!

• Beans – Combo of protein, carbs, and fiber; super filling.

• Avocado – Full of healthy fats = high calorie, creamy texture.

• Potatoes/Hash Browns – Carb-heavy; fry them in oil for a calorie boost. Tortilla (esp. flour) – High in carbs and often fat; large ones can be 200–300+ calories! Perfect for people eating only 1-2 main meals a day.

• Oil/Butter (for cooking) – Pure fat = high calorie boost with just a small amount.

• In total we’re looking at anywhere from 30-40g of protein for a medium size burrito and even more the larger the tortillas are.
