I never thought I'd say this, but there was a time that I was sick of eating bagel sandwiches for breakfast.

As delicious as a hot NY style bagel piled high with pork roll, egg, and cheese is, it can be very filling, sometimes too filling and not so good for the waistline. Especially when you're coming out of the winter slump and getting ready for summer.

So my family and I have made the switch to this spinach and egg breakfast burrito, a much more healthy breakfast recipe!

It's stuffed with scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese, salsa, and spinach. Four wholesome fresh ingredients wrapped in a light tortilla. Ready in less than 10 minutes.

Fast, easy, healthy and delicious!
