Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce.
• Dice tomato into ¼-inch pieces. Trim and thinly slice half the scallions (all for 4 servings).
• In a medium microwave-safe bowl, whisk together crème fraîche and 2 TBSP water (4 TBSP for 4 servings) until smooth and creamy. (TIP: If mixture is too thick, add another splash of water.) Whisk in eggs* and ¼ tsp salt (½ tsp for 4) until thoroughly combined, 1-2 minutes.
• Add half the tomato and half the sliced scallions to bowl. Cover with plastic wrap; microwave, stirring halfway through, until eggs are puffed and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. TIP: Check eggs after 1 minute, then continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until done.
• While eggs cook, place each tortilla on a separate microwave-safe plate. Spread a thick layer of Old El Paso™ Refried Black Beans on the bottom two-thirds of each tortilla; evenly sprinkle with pepper jack. TIP: You may not use all the refried beans.
• Working in batches, microwave cheese-topped tortillas until beans are warmed through and cheese begins to melt, 40-60 seconds.
• Lay cheese-topped tortillas on a clean work surface. Carefully remove plastic wrap from bowl with scrambled eggs (bowl and contents will be hot!); divide eggs, remaining tomato, and remaining sliced scallions between tortillas; drizzle with as much hot sauce as you like.
• Fold up bottom side of each tortilla over filling, then fold over left and right sides toward filling. Roll up tortillas, starting with filled sides, to form burritos.
• Divide burritos between plates and serve.
Wash hands and surfaces after handling raw eggs. Consuming raw or undercooked eggs may increase your risk of foodborne illness.

Review summary
Updated on Dec 2025- Flavor: Many enjoyed the taste, though some found it bland. Adding jalapeño and garlic to the beans boosted flavor 🌶️.
- Ease of prep: Quick and easy to make, but some preferred cooking eggs on the stove instead of microwaving.
- Suggestions: Consider using more eggs for a heartier filling. Try adding salsa or picante sauce for extra zest.
- Portions: Several mentioned too many beans; reduce the amount for better balance with other ingredients.
- Versatility: Great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Leftovers saved well and remained tasty.
Reviews from our home cooks
I like regular egg wraps, but don't like spicy food, so I didn't use the cheese or the hot sauce. I also didn't like/use the beans either. The portion of the eggs is too small as well, because you need 4 eggs for 2 wraps (2 for each one). So I'd prefer a wrap with more eggs, and a better cheese (like cheddar, for example). The tomato and scallion are good with it though. And I liked adding the creme fraiche to the eggs, to make them fluffier and tastier.
It took way longer than advertised and, in the end, the microwave-method of cooking the eggs just left them runny and underwhelming. Plus, the instructions for folding the burritos felt almost intentionally obtuse and unhelpful.
I made these by cooking everything on the stove instead of microwave but These were a huge hit! Great Sunday brunch with some hashbrowns and juice!
I cook the beans with jalepeno, garlic, and the scallion whites. no seasoning needed, makes the beans a lot more flavorful
One egg per burrito would not have been enough. I used two per burrito and these turned out really good.
I appreciate the introduction to the refried black beans, they are delicious. All of this dish worked well
Amazing and hello fresh has me wanting to add sour cream to my eggs every time I make eggs now
I thought this looked odd. Nope, it's fantastic and perfect for a night that didn't go as planned.
This was a delicious and fast breakfast! More of these please.
Everyone liked it. Does take longer than 15 min for 4.
