Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons canola oil
- 1/2 small red onion, diced (1 cup)
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
- 1 cup drained, rinsed canned black beans, preferably low-sodium

*Makes 4 burritos*
Directions:
1. Heat the canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over a medium-high heat.
2. Cook the onions and peppers until onions are softened and peppers are slightly charred, about 8 minutes. Add black beans and red pepper flakes and cook until warmed through, another 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a dish.
3. Whisk together the eggs and egg whites then stir in the cheese.
4. Spray the skillet with cooking spray, and reheat the skillet over a medium heat.
5. Reduce heat to low and add eggs, scrambling until cooked through, about 3 minutes.
6. Spread each tortilla with 1 tablespoon each sour cream and salsa, then layer with 1/4 of the black bean mixture, 1/4 of the scrambled eggs, some diced tomato and 1/4 of the avocado.
7. Season, to taste, with hot sauce. Roll up burrito-style and serve.
