Whole wheat adds fiber, while corn tortillas are often less expensive.

Whisk together 2 eggs, salt, and 1 teaspoon hot sauce until well combined.

Mix in 70g (1/3 cup) canned black beans.

Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a pan.

Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring continuously until the eggs are just set.

Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl and add 1 tablespoon chopped green onion, 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, and 1 tablespoon chopped pickled jalapeno; gently stir together.

Warm a tortilla in the pan for 1 minute, then flip and repeat on the other side.

Sprinkle 25g (1/4 cup) grated cheddar cheese over one half of the tortilla.

Add the scrambled eggs on top of the cheese, then add another 25g (1/4 cup) cheddar cheese.

Fold the empty half of the tortilla over the toppings and press gently.

Cook for 2-3 minutes, then flip over and repeat on the other side.

Cut in half and enjoy.
