This is a great, healthy version of a classic! I pared the recipe down for one (using one egg and one egg white) and it made a great quick dinner bite between errands this evening! I skipped the cilantro as I can't stand the stuff, and instead to kick up the flavor I threw some sliced green olives in before wrapping. I also put the salsa inside the burrito since I was eating on the go. Delicious! Thanks for posting! Made for the VIP Chef in Veg*n Swap #21.

I used Eggbeaters Southwest flavor and red pepper (what I had) and they turned out to be a scrumptious brekkie. The only real change that I made was to micro the tortillas to soften them for nice rolling and as everything was hot didn't feel the need to bake them. Bravo ellie, this is so easy and so good I know that it will be enjoyed time and time again!

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
