Notes
When making these burritos, it’s important to fill the burrito. More filling will really bring out the flavors of the ingredients and make for a delicious breakfast.
Another great way to ensure the best-tasting burrito is to always place the cheese as the bottom layer. This will let the cheese melt and make the overall burrito taste delicious!
A great way to make this healthier is to opt for fiber-rich ingredients like black beans and grilled vegetables. Another way is to choose a different type of tortilla other than a classic white variety. Spinach-rich tortilla or a chickpea flour tortilla are great alternatives.
