Ingredients

1 14-ounce can black beans drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 tablespoons salsa plus more for garnish
1 cup bell peppers chopped
4 eggs
1/2 cup plain unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Sea Salt and Black Pepper
1 cup arugula or greens
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes chopped

Instructions

Heat the Beans: in a small saucepan, add the drained and rinsed black beans, bell pepper, salsa, and chili powder. Mix well and simmer over very low heat.
Make the Eggs: crack eggs in a bowl and whisk with milk and paprika until well combined. Pour egg mixture into a non-stick pan, and heat over low heat. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes until the egg begins to firm and brown around the edges of the pan. Flip with a spatula and cook 2 to 3 minutes on the opposite side.
Build your Omelette: divide the eggs into 2 portions. To each, top with black bean mixture and fold the egg mixture over. Add arugula and fresh tomatoes to each omelette, salsa for garnish, and salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
