High Protein Breakfast Burritos
10 steps
Prep:10minCook:10min
A healthy, high protein take on a breakfast classic. You can modify it by going with a low carb tortilla or just using egg whites but I recommend going with the recipe as it is. 25-30g of protein and 350ish calories.• 8 large whole-grain or spinach tortillas
