⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
-
½ cup water

Description
-
In a 10-inch nonstick skillet heat oil over medium. Add onion; cook about 4 minutes or until softened. Add garlic; cook 30 seconds more. Remove from heat. Stir beans, cumin, salt, oregano, and cayenne pepper into the onion mixture; mash with the back of a spoon. Return to heat and stir in the water, continuing to mash the beans. Simmer until beans are thick and of spreading consistency (mixture won't be completely smooth). Remove from skillet; keep warm.
-
Rinse and dry the skillet; coat with cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium. In a large bowl whisk together eggs and egg whites. Add egg mixture to skillet and cook, without stirring, until eggs begin to set on bottom and around edges. With a spatula, lift and fold the partially cooked egg mixture so the uncooked portion flows underneath. Continue cooking 2 to 3 minutes or until cooked through but still glossy and moist.
-
To serve, spread bean mixture on warmed tortillas; top with cooked eggs. Sprinkle with cheese. Fold in half. Top with pico de gallo.
