This avocado and egg breakfast burrito is creamy, cheesy, and satisfying—perfect for busy mornings or lazy weekends. With fluffy scrambled eggs, ripe avocado, and gooey melted cheese wrapped in a warm tortilla, it’s a quick and customizable breakfast that the whole family will love.
Ingredients
1 large flour tortilla (burrito size, soft and pliable)
2 large eggs (scrambled until fluffy)
1 ripe avocado (mashed for creaminess)
¼ cup shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese (melts beautifully)
Small handful of fresh spinach (optional, adds color and nutrients)
1–2 tablespoons salsa or hot sauce (for flavor and heat)
1 teaspoon olive oil or butter (for cooking eggs)
Salt and black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
arm the tortilla in a dry skillet for 20–30 seconds per side until soft and pliable.
Scramble the eggs in a nonstick pan with olive oil or butter, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook gently until fluffy.
Mash the avocado in a small bowl with a fork, leaving some chunks if you like texture. Season with a pinch of salt.
Assemble the burrito: Spread mashed avocado on the tortilla, then add scrambled eggs, shredded cheese, and any extras like spinach or salsa.
Roll it up: Fold in the sides and roll tightly from the bottom up. For extra crispiness, return to the skillet seam-side down for 1–2 minutes.
Serve immediately or wrap in foil for an on-the-go breakfast.
Notes
Make ahead: Wrap burritos tightly in foil and refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
Reheat: Microwave for 2–3 minutes or bake at 375°F for 15–20 minutes until warm.
Variations: Swap cheese types, add extra veggies, or spice it up with jalapeños or salsa verde.
