Home is where the heart is. This is so true! In my home, my heart is in the kitchen and there’s nothing more that I love to do all day than cook for my family of four! Well, there are, of course, other chores to do plus I’m also manning my own online business. But my day never goes by without me whipping hearty meals in the kitchen.
My typical day starts with preparing breakfast. I usually take my time to cook. I am never into rushing things in my kitchen. It’s more about managing my time so that I can do all the things that needs to be done in a day. So time for me to share my quick and easy hearty full breakfast meal.

- 2 teaspoons canola oil

Instructions:
- Heat the canola oil in a large nonstick pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the onions and peppers until onions are softened and peppers are slightly charred, for about 8 minutes.

- Whisk together the eggs and egg whites then stir in the cheese. Spray the skillet with cooking spray, and reheat the skillet over a medium heat. Reduce heat to low and add eggs, scrambling until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Spread each tortilla with 1 tablespoon each sour cream and salsa, then layer with 1/4 of the black bean mixture, 1/4 of the scrambled eggs, some diced tomato and 1/4 of the avocado. Season to taste with hot sauce. Roll up burrito-style and serve.
