Make-Ahead High Protein Breakfast Pouches

These breakfast pouches are customizable, healthy, and they cook up while you're getting ready in the morning. How easy is that?

Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 4 eggs or 1 recipe of tofu scramble
  • 4 small corn tortillas
  • 1 recipe black beans or 1 can of black beans
  • Whatever else you want to include: tomatoes cilantro, cheese, hot sauce, avocado, cooked quinoa

Instructions

  1. Lay out four squares of foil, then place four equal-sized (approximately) squares of parchment paper onto the foil.

  2. Lay a tortilla into the centre of each parchment square. Place the beans and tofu scramble - if you're using it - into the centre of the tortilla. The recipes for those are above, in my post.

  3. **if you're using eggs, you'll put those in when you're ready to actually cook the pouch.
  4. Put any of the other ingredients you want to use, on top of the beans - tomatoes, spinach, cheese, whatever. I added the cilantro and avocado after cooking, but you don't have to at all.
  5. Fold each packet up on each side and place in the refrigerator.
  6. To cook, preheat your oven to 400F.
  7. If you're using fresh eggs, open the pouch and make a small divot in the beans and other ingredients. Crack the egg into the divot, refold the pouch up, and place into the oven.
  8. Cook the pouches for 15 minutes or until desired egg doneness. If you're not using fresh eggs, 15 minutes should be enough to heat through.
