Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. You hear that term again and again yet so many of us skip it. I used to be one of those girls, a breakfast skipper. Coffee is all I would have for my morning fuel yet I would still feel so tired. Why? Because I wasn’t giving my body what it needed, real food.
Soon I became tired of being tired and I decided to change my bad habit. Having breakfast not only gives me energy but really prepares me for the whole day. One of my favorite proteins to consume in the a.m. are eggs. Not just any eggs but Eggland’s Best eggs.
Eggland’s Best (EB) eggs are full of added nutrients. They have 10X more vitamin E, 25% less saturated fat, and 6X more vitamin D than ordinary eggs. This is because EB hens are fed with superior feed that is vegetarian and contains no animal by-products. You can read all about how they compare to ordinary eggs here.
Now that you’ve heard some of the perk to choosing Eggland’s Best eggs, let’s get to cooking them up in a yummy recipe.
Spicy EB Egg Breakfast Burrito
Adding spices and peppers to your morning meal can really help jumpstart your metabolism and increase satiety making you feel fuller faster. My favorite ingredients to add some spice are red pepper flakes and jalapeños. I use them in everything because they have so much flavor and spice.
This spicy EB egg breakfast burrito is the perfect morning meal. It is high in protein, nutrients, and has great flavor to it. You can prepare the burrito mix before hand for the week to save time. All you need is to warm up some whole wheat tortillas and you’ll have a delicious breakfast burrito.
Ingredients (Makes 2 Burritos)
- 4 Eggland’s Best eggs
- 1/2 cup scallions
- 1/3 cup cilantro
- 1 Habanero chopped
- 1 Jalapeño chopped
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
Directions
- Scramble eggs and add to skillet.
- Cook until about half way done then add all ingredients. Be sure to mix through evenly.
- Heat up a flour tortilla and add your egg mixture.
- Roll up and enjoy.
Making an effort to have breakfast in the morning can really change your mood and the way your day goes. Always put your health first and give your body what it needs.

I haven’t had a good breakfast burrito in quite a while! I can’t wait to try this one out! yuuuummmmm…
This is right up my alley! My boyfriend and I make spicy breakfast all the time – definitely going to give your recipe a try this week. Thank you for creating and sharing!! #sweatpink <3
It’s so good and has a nice little kick. 🙂
I love a good grab and go breakfast and this one would certainly hit the mark. We often do overnight oats and smoothies for on the go breakfasts so it will be nice to add something to the rotation.
Breakfast is by far my favorite meal of the day, and I’m always looking for ways to mix it up! I will have to make this recipe for my hubby. Eggs are the perfect breakfast food. 🙂
Thanks for sharing!
oh, I love a good breakfast burrito, espeically a spicy one with chorizo! I am for sure making this this weekend! PS, LOVE your blog!
Awe thank you! That’s so sweet. 🙂 I’ve never liked chorizo! My mom would always make it and I hated the smell haha. I think I need to retry it as an adult because everything taste so much better when you’re older. 🙂 I hope you enjoy it!
Thank you for this post. My husband loves breakfast and Mexican food. This is perfect recipe to make on a weekend. I’ll definitely try it.

It’s a fancy yet really simple recipe! 🙂
OMG so delicious! I need to make this!
I hope you love it! Enjoy. 🙂
I love Eggland’s Best! I buy their eggs every time I go shopping. This breakfast burrito looks delish! I will have to throw this into my breakfast rotation.
Me too! I love them! They definitely taste better in this burrito thought. 😉
I can so see myself meal prepping several of these for the whole week! Yum!
YUMMY! This looks SO good! can’t wait to make it!
My husband and I love having breakfast burritos on the weekend! This looks like a great recipe. Thanks for posting!
Growing up, I only really enjoyed sweet breakfasts. However, as an adult, I am leaning more towards the savory so this burrito is right up my alley! Love the added kick from the peppers!
Whooooaaaaa this looks amazing!!! I thinkI have all (or most) of these ingredients sitting around, so I am going to try to make this tomorrow!
This is a fantastic idea for a quick, yet healthy breakfast! I love my eggs in the morning, but I also love trying new recipes, so I’ll definitely make this one tomorrow morning 🙂 The eggs you used sound amazing, I’d love to try them too!
