Method
Preparing the Salsa
- 1
Mix the Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped onion, chopped cilantro, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

Chill the Salsa
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the salsa for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Making the Burrito Filling

Scramble the Eggs
In a large skillet, crack the eggs and whisk them together. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the eggs are fully cooked but still moist, about 3-5 minutes.

Add Beans and Cheese
Add the drained black beans and shredded cheddar cheese to the scrambled eggs. Stir gently until the cheese has melted and is evenly distributed, about 2 minutes.

Prepare the Tortillas
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, just until pliable.

Fill the Tortillas
Place a generous portion of the egg and cheese mixture in the center of each tortilla. Add a spoonful of the homemade salsa on top.
