Ingredients
  • frozen fajita vegetables450 g (1 bag)
  • burrito tortillas6 tortillas
  • lean ground turkey (99/1)8 oz (227 g)
  • lean ground beef (96/4)8 oz (227 g)
  • taco seasoning1 packet (30 g)
  • cottage cheese (2%)450 g
  • nutritional yeast8 g
  • egg whites400 g
  • egg6 large eggs (300 g)
  • sea saltto taste
Method
Add the frozen fajita vegetables to a pan on high heat with the cover on until softened, then saute until they start to brown. Add the ground turkey and ground beef, brown one side, then flip and break into small pieces with a spatula. Add the taco seasoning and mix, then add the cottage cheese and nutritional yeast. Cook about 10 minutes to reduce the liquid and thicken. In the same pan, lightly scramble the egg whites and whole eggs with sea salt - do not overcook. Let the meat and eggs cool completely (building too early makes tortillas soggy). Divide 1/6th of the meat and 1/6th of the eggs into each tortilla and roll into burritos. Wrap each in aluminum foil and freeze. To serve, remove foil, wrap in a paper towel and microwave 2:30 (flipping halfway), then air fry at 360F for 10-12 minutes until golden.
