A
healthy breakfast
burrito recipe made with ham, mushrooms, sliced red and
green peppers, onion,
and shredded cheese and served in a low-fat flavored tortilla
shell. Serve
this burrito for a quick breakfast recipe or as part of a brunch menu.
These
breakfast burritos contain a flavorful filling of meat and
vegetables that are healthy and filling without being too heavy to
weigh you down in the morning. Add a dash of cayenne pepper sauce for
additional flavor and enjoy!
Because there are
no eggs in these breakfast burritos, this is a good breakfast recipe
for those who have an egg allergy or just do not care for eggs.
