Ingredients

Salsa Verde:

1 (13-ounce) can tomatillos or 6 medium peeled and cored tomatillos, cut into quarters

6 medium peeled and cored tomatillos, cut into quarters

1/4 jalapeno, seeded and cut into several pieces

1/2 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves

1/2 lime, juiced

1/8 cup water

1/2 teaspoon coarse salt

For the scrambled eggs:

2 eggs

4 egg whites

Coarse salt and cracked black pepper

1/2 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

4 (6-inch) flour tortillas

Directions

  1. For the salsa: Place all ingredients in food processor or blend and pulse until smooth. You may need to thin the sauce to desired consistency with up to 1/4 cup of water. Set aside.
  2. Whisk eggs and egg whites together. Season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a 10-inch non-stick pan over medium heat. Add eggs. Let cook for 1 minute or just until barely set. Using a heat proof rubber spatula, gently stir in figure 8 motion until eggs are just cooked.
  3. Heat tortillas. Distribute eggs evenly among tortillas. Top with salsa, to taste.

I am new to this site, and received an email about "Healthy Eats" concerning breakfast. I took a look at the "take to work scrambled egg breakfast burritto" and is this really a healthy alternative? Maybe I'm just a "carb-phobic" but i would think that 2 flour tortillas would put this way over. I didn't see the break down on calories, fat and carbs. Is there a special place to find this info for the recipes shown? thanks for the help,
