Ingredients

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 onion small; diced
2 cups kale firmly packed; shredded into bite-sized pieces; see note 1
2 cups mushrooms sliced; see note 2
5 eggs
¼ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon oregano
½ cup feta cheese crumbled
1 ¼ cup cheddar cheese shredded
5 large flour tortillas 10-12 inches

Instructions

Sauté onions and mushrooms- Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 or so minutes, until soft and translucent. Add the mushrooms to the pan, and cook for 3 more minutes, until soft and cooked through.
Sauté kale- Add the kale and cook for 2 more minutes, until soft and the kale is wilted. If kale is frozen, add it straight to the pan without thawing, increasing the cook time if needed.
Add eggs- While the veggies are cooking, beat the eggs with the salt, pepper, and oregano. Add the eggs to the pan and cook for 3-4 more minutes, until the eggs are cooked through.
Add feta- Sprinkle the feta cheese evenly over everything, then remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool before rolling.
Roll- Scoop ¾ cup of the *cooled* egg/veggie filling onto a 12-inch flour tortilla. Sprinkle with ¼ cup of shredded cheese. Fold the ends over and roll tightly.
Store- Wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and store in a larger meal prep container or freezer bag.
Heat, then crisp- in the microwave until steaming hot, then crisp up in a frying pan or a sandwich press.

Notes

1- you can use fresh or frozen kale; if using frozen, add it to the pan without thawing and increase the cook time as needed.

2- you can use your favorite type of mushrooms; cremini, button or chopped portobellos are all great options

Storage

fridge- store individually wrapped burritos in an air tight container for up to 48 hours; the tortillas can get soft and are best frozen for longer than that
freezer- store individually wrapped burritos in an air tight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months

Variations:

kale- swap for spinach or your favorite greens
other veggies- swap onions & mushrooms for sautéed bell peppers, cauliflower rice, roasted sweet potatoes or what you happen to have in the fridge.
eggs- you can make this vegetarian by swapping the eggs for tofu (follow directions for this tofu scramble)
feta- omit, but add at least ¼ teaspoon salt
other- you could turn these into breakfast quesadillas, or leave out the tortilla and enjoy as a breakfast scramble.
