Method
 

Cooking Instructions:
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and red pepper flakes. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and sauté the chopped bell pepper and spinach until tender, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper, then pour into the skillet. Scramble until fluffy and cooked, about 4-5 minutes.
  4. Warm the tortillas. On each, layer roasted potatoes, sautéed veggies, scrambled eggs, black beans, and pico de gallo. Top with avocado and cilantro.
  5. Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll from the bottom up to enclose the fillings tightly.
  6. Serve warm with lime wedges and cilantro lime dressing for dipping.
