I don't specifically remember the first burrito I ate, but I do have a vague memory of it being late at night, at a 7-11 and at a time when I was not in a responsible decision-making state. And I do recall swearing that I'd never eat another one again as long as I shall live. And for many years I stayed true to that vow.

That was, until I had a crazy delicious and healthy breakfast burrito at a cafe in Kimberley, B.C.. That experience was enough to inspire me to make my own Weight Watchers friendly Healthy Vegetarian Mediterranean Breakfast Burrito. These breakfast burritos are WW friendly at 5 WW points on my plan, but you can click HERE to find out how many points they are on your personal WW plan.

🥘 Ingredients
For this vegetarian breakfast burrito recipe, you'll need:
- fresh spinach
- feta cheese
- sun-dried tomatoes
- sliced black olives
- tortillas
- eggs
- refried beans
*see recipe card for quantities
I also added refried beans, then wrapped them all up in sun-dried tomato tortillas. If you are like me and have always wondered if refried beans are actually healthy, then read on!
💭 Are Refried Beans Healthy?
Although refried beans don't sound all that healthy, they can be part of a very healthy diet. The typical canned brand I buy (Old El Paso or something similar), has only 90 calories, .5g fat and 6 g fibre and 6 g of protein per ½ cup. Rich in complex carbohydrates, protein, potassium, iron, magnesium and folate, refried beans provide both insoluble and soluble fiber, both of which play important roles in your digestion and absorption of food. For vegetarians and people who are trying to cut back on red meat, refried beans provide both protein and iron. Refried beans are also a good source of potassium, an electrolyte that helps maintain normal blood pressure. So, relatively speaking, I'd say they are pretty healthy for canned food! You can read more about the health benefits of refried beans here.

Make-ahead breakfast burritos!
In addition to trying to feed my kids a healthy breakfast on busy weekday mornings, one of the biggest challenges I face is trying to come with a breakfast or brunch potluck idea for work. I am busy, so I need something I can make ahead and freeze. But there aren't many options out there! Enter make-ahead, freezable healthy breakfast burritos....
Of course you can freeze these breakfast burritos (see below) but if you choose not to, they can be refrigerated for up to 2 days. Because they have egg in them, I do not recommend eating them after 2 days.

These easy, tasty and healthy vegetarian Greek breakfast burritos solve both these problems, as they can easily be made ahead, then frozen.

Here's what others are saying: "These were so delicious!!! Honestly better than any restaurant breakfast burrito I've had savory, fresh (the generous amount of herbs is key), and zingy (I ended up adding quite a bit of hot sauce to the egg mixture). Also such a great meal prep idea for a Sunday night. Thank you!!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Gabrielle @ eyecandypopper
Yummm!!! I love breakfast burritos and this one sounds delicious! I could even add some red pepper in there.
Terri Gilson
Hi Gabrielle - I think red pepper would be delicious!
Cathy
I love the idea of keeping these burritos handy in the freezer! Your instructional video is great! This might be a new idea for my husband's lunches.
Terri Gilson
Hi Cathy: Thanks! Yes, I often bring these to work for a late breakfast/early lunch. It feels weird to say I eat 'brunch' at work lol... Glad the video was helpful!
Elaine @ Flavour and Savour
Hi Terri,
I love the idea of creating new foods by borrowing flavours from other cultures as you've done here! Great idea! All my favourite flavours.
Terri Gilson
Hi Elaine: Thanks. Yes, because I love Greek and Mexican, they seemed a perfect match 🙂
Sharon
I've never tried a breakfast burrito! I'll have to remedy that soon. I love eggs in the morning but never seem to have the time. This make ahead option could really streamline things. Thanks so much for sharing!
Terri Gilson
Hi Sharon: Oh you have to try burritos for breakfast then! The make-ahead aspect is definitely a deal breaker when it comes to eggs on busy weekday mornings for me too! 🙂
Deborah @ Confessions of a mother runner
