Ingredients

  • 8 large egg whites

  • 1 lb lean ground turkey
  • 1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup low -fat shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 large high -fiber flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup salsa verde

  • 1/2 medium red onion, diced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • In a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground turkey until browned and cooked through, breaking it into small crumbles.
  • Add the diced bell pepper and red onion to the skillet; sauté for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites and whole eggs until combined.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the turkey and vegetables.
  • Stir in the cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Scramble the eggs gently until fully set but still moist; stir in the black beans to warm through.
  • Warm the tortillas slightly in a dry pan or microwave to increase pliability.
  • Divide the filling evenly among the four tortillas, placing it in the center.
  • Top each portion with 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese and 2 tablespoons of salsa verde.
  • Fold in the ends of each tortilla and roll tightly to seal the burrito.
