Notes

Feel free to customize with whatever veggies or proteins you have on hand to suit your taste preferences. For meal prep, make several burritos at once and freeze them for quick breakfasts during the week. If you prefer a lighter version, use egg whites, whole wheat tortillas, and low-fat cheese. Adding hot sauce or jalapeños is a great way to spice things up, especially if you enjoy a bit of heat in the morning.
