Description
  I love having eggs for breakfast, but I don't like spending 15 minutes making breakfast for just 1 morning, just to do it again the next day. This recipe serves as a way to prep a whole week's worth of breakfast to store in the freezer for easy reheating in the morning. Wrap these in protein tortillas as I did here for even more of a nutrient boost. Other meal prep egg recipes include my Spinach and Onion Frittata and my Long Weekend Scrambled Eggs

Ingredients
- 1 lb (454 g) Frozen spinach, thawed ($1.55)
- 1 medium (70 g) Onion ($0.23)
- 1/4 cup (60 g) Hot sauce ($0.27)
- 3 tbsp (45 g) Minced garlic ($0.27)
- 1 tsp (3 g) Garlic powder ($0.03)
- 1 tsp (2 g) Onion powder ($0.02)
- 1 tsp (2 g) Paprika ($0.03)
- 1 tsp (3 g) Chili powder ($0.03)
- 1/2 tsp (1 g) Black pepper, ground ($0.03)
- 1/4 tsp (2 g) Salt ($0.00)
- 6 large (302 g) Egg ($0.72)
- 3/4 cup (84 g) Shredded mozzarella cheese ($0.67)
- 3/4 cup (168 g) Salsa ($0.73)
- 6 medium (300 g) Whole wheat tortilla ($2.10)

Instructions
1.  Dice the onion small, and add the onion and defrosted spinach to a 12” pan over medium heat (3-4 on my stove) with a spray of oil

2.  Add in the hot sauce, garlic, and spices. Cover and cook until onions are translucent (medium heat)

3.  Remove the pan from the burner, and crack in the 6 eggs. Beat the eggs with your spatula until fully beaten and everything is fully mixed

4.  Return to the burner and cook until eggs are almost done (~15 min?) over medium heat

5.  When eggs are almost done, add in the cheese and salsa and stir until incorporated

6.  Divide the mix evenly across 6 tortillas. Wait to shape the leftovers until the eggs have cooled. Optionally top with some sauce

7.  Wrap up, wrap in aluminum foil, and freeze

8.  To reheat, wrap burrito in a damp paper towel and microwave on high for 2 minutes. Then grill (panini press) on all 4 sides for a few minutes or until the tortilla is lightly golden brown
