This Avocado Breakfast Burrito Bowl is a delicious and nourishing way to start your day. Try this easy recipe for a fun twist on the classic breakfast burrito.
My family is happy to eat breakfast any time of day. It’s definitely our favorite meal, and we like to slow down and spend a little extra time on the weekends enjoying breakfast together. Pancakes and waffles are fun treats, but I personally prefer a savory meal for breakfast.
This avocado breakfast burrito bowl is such a delicious combination of flavors. Seasoned beans and scrambled eggs are the classic base for a breakfast burrito, and fresh avocados along with a creamy avocado dressing take this meal to the next level. The combination of flavors and textures makes this such a satisfying dish.
February is American Heart Month, and I’m excited to team up with the Hass Avocado Board and the American Heart Association to help spread the word about one of my favorite foods. These two organizations have teamed up to encourage Americans to get their daily quota of fruits and vegetables. Produce can be a powerful weapon against cardiovascular disease, stroke, and diabetes.
Avocados, which are a fruit, although most people think of them as a vegetable, contain less than one gram of sugar per 1-ounce, the least amount of sugar per serving of any other fresh fruit.
Fresh avocados are heart-healthy. They provide naturally good fats, are low in saturated fat, and are cholesterol- and sodium-free. With over 600,000 Americans dying from heart disease each year, this little fruit is a great resource for a healthy diet.
