Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound small yellow potatoes, cut into ½-inch pieces
  • Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Pinches of red pepper flakes
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • ½ cup shredded red cabbage (optional)
  • 3 (12-inch) tortillas
  • 9 scrambled eggs
  • ¾ cup cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
  • ½ cup pico de gallo
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 lime for squeezing
  • Cilantro Lime Dressing, for dipping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread the diced potatoes on the sheet, drizzle lightly with olive oil, and sprinkle with sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and red pepper flakes. Toss to coat evenly.
  • Bake the potatoes for about 30 minutes or until they’re golden brown and crisp around the edges.
  • For the red bell pepper, heat a grill pan over medium heat and add the whole pepper. Rotate every 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is charred and the flesh is tender.
  • Remove the pepper from the heat, discard the stem and seeds, and slice it into thin strips.
  • Lay the tortillas flat on a work surface. Add an even layer of fresh spinach and shredded red cabbage, if using, to each.
  • Top with scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, red pepper strips, black beans, pico de gallo, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro.
  • Squeeze fresh lime juice over the filling for a bright pop of flavor, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Fold the burrito: tuck the sides in first, then roll tightly from the bottom. Wrap in foil for a compact shape if desired.
  • Serve immediately with Cilantro Lime Dressing for dipping or pack to enjoy later!
