Ingredients
  

  • 2 large eggs packed with protein and essential nutrients
  • 1 can black beans (15-ounce, drained and rinsed)
  • 1 medium ripe Hass avocado provides healthy fats and creamy texture
  • 1 medium/large tomato (Roma preferred)
  • cilantro for garnishing to taste
  • 1 juice lime optional, for a zesty kick
  • salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Frying pan
  • Can opener
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Measuring spoons
  • Serving bowl

Method
 

  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients. Drain and rinse the black beans, chop the tomato and avocado, and set aside the cilantro for garnishing.
  2. Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Crack the two eggs into the pan. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook the eggs until they reach your desired doneness—sunny side up, scrambled, or over easy are all great options!
  3. In the same pan (or a separate one), add the rinsed black beans and warm them over low heat. Stir occasionally until heated through.
  4. In your serving bowl, start layering: first, add the warm black beans as the base. Then, carefully place the cooked eggs on top.
  5. Next, add the chopped tomato and sliced avocado. Feel free to be generous with the avocado—it adds creaminess and flavor!
  6. Finish your bowl with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice if desired. Enjoy immediately for the best experience!

Notes

  • For meal prep, store the eggs and beans separately to maintain freshness.
  • Customize with spices like cumin or chili powder for extra flavor.
  • Use a plant-based egg substitute for a vegan version.
