# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • You get real vegetables and protein in one bite, so you actually feel full until lunch.
  • The whole thing comes together in 30 minutes, which means weekday mornings become manageable.
  • It's flexible enough to work with whatever veggies are hanging around your crisper drawer.
02 -
  • Don't skip seeding the tomato or your burrito turns into a soaky mess no matter how tight you roll it.
  • The vegetables need to be cooked until soft enough to taste good but not so long they turn gray and lose their flavor.
  • If you make these ahead and wrap them in foil, they stay warm and portable for hours, which is the whole point of a burrito.
03 -
  • Dice all your vegetables before you start cooking so you can move quickly once the pan is hot.
  • Keep the cheese separate from the eggs until the very last second so it melts into a creamy texture instead of turning stringy.
