Ingredients

  • 4 Mission® Artisan® Blue Corn Tortillas
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium black beans
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon skim milk
  • Salt and black pepper as needed
  • Non-stick cooking spray, as needed
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic cloves
  • 4 cups baby spinach leaves
  • 1 ounce aged Cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons pico de gallo

Directions

  1. Place black beans in microwave safe bowl and reheat in microwave.
  2. Combine eggs, milk and season with salt and black pepper as desired; whisk until well combined. Coat a small non-stick saute pan with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Add egg mixture and scramble. Remove from heat and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over top; keep warm.
  3. Place second medium non-stick saute pan over medium heat, add olive oil and minced garlic; saute for 1 minute. Add spinach and toss with heat resistant plastic spatula until spinach is dark green and slightly wilted.
  4. Heat four Mission® Artisan® Blue Corn Tortillas according to package directions and place on a flat work surface. Divide scrambled egg evenly among tortillas, layer with garlic sauteed spinach, and use a slotted spoon to divide beans evenly over top. Finish each with pico de gallo; serve immediately.

Footnotes

  • Hints:
  • Substitute sauteed mushrooms in place of black beans if desired.
  • If pico de gallo is not available in your supermarket, use a fresh refrigerated salsa instead.
  • Add crisp crumbled bacon or ham for even more flavor.
