Optional low-carb dessert, if you have carbs left (some, like the low-carb brownies, are just one carb each)

Note: Calories can be varied by adding and subtracting protein and fat (if you get hungry, add more calories), or, if your particular carbohydrate needs vary from this, by changing amounts of carbohydrate foods.

The post [Video] Inspired by Chipotle: a Delicious Homemade (Vegan) Burrito Bowl! appeared first on Top Morning Recommendations.

Let me count the reasons I love these healthy breakfast burritos:

1. Make ahead.

2. Freezer-friendly.

3. Little to no effort in the morning.

4. They are FILLING! I could only eat half of one, and it kept me going right on through till lunch! Love that!

5. They taste great! Cheese, eggs, lentils, some veggies. All wrapped up in a tortilla. So good.

6. They get nice and crispy. OK, so I used my George Foreman grill, which is absolutely perfect for heating these up in the morning. You’re going to want to flatten them slightly so that they warm right through. You can also use a fry-pan but it takes longer. Or, you could just heat them in the microwave on a paper towel. Any which way, they are not soggy.
