Green Chile Breakfast Burrito
I’m always looking for ways to spice up the normal breakfast foods. And although I’m not very good about eating breakfast myself, the husband cannot function without breakfast.
So in order to ensure that he eats a healthy breakfast, I try to have a healthy protein-packed breakfast option ready each morning, especially one that’s easy to eat on the go. This week, I decided to mix up our usual scrambled eggs, by adding green chilies and cheddar. MMM mmm.
Health Benefits
Eggs-high in protein, great source of choline for brain function and health, and reduce inflammation
Green Chilies-rich in vitamins A and C, contain high amounts of the antioxidant beta-carotene, which supports the cardiovascular system, as well as helps maintain the health of the skin, eyes and immune system. Also a good source of iron and potassium.
Give these breakfast burritos a try! You can even make up a few ahead of time and pop in the fridge, then reheat on your way out the door in the mornings!

Green Chile Breakfast Burrito
Ingredients
3 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon green chilies, diced
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 whole wheat tortillas
salt and pepper
Directions
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add in beaten eggs, and continue scrambling as they cook. When the eggs are almost done, add in green chilies, cheddar cheese, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and distribute egg mixture between two tortillas. Roll up as burritos and enjoy!
