Do beans and eggs make an edible combination? I was thinking of
trying bean burrito filling (refried beans, chili powder, onions,
cumin, orgeno, green chilis) with eggs - maybe mixed with
scrambled or in an omelet. Anyone ever tried anything like this?
I could just give it a try but hate to waste the food if it's not
edible.

TIA

Anything's edible if you like it. Try it and see. I don't see why it
wouldn't be ok. Doesn't sound gross. (at least to me)

the Green Burrito chain used to (maybe still does) make their breakfast
burritos as refried beans, scrabled eggs, hot sauce. it always worked for
me.

sometimes i'll do a breakfast burritos that's (trader joe's 89c) flour
tortilla, (vons no fat) refried beans, an over-east or scrabled egg, and
(salsa brava) hot sauce.

guilt is reduced if you do a bike ride before or after.

I grew up eating beans / eggs / hashbrowns, for breakfast although the
beans were "Boston Baked bean" type, and it didn't hurt me, ( I'm 6' 51/2"
and weigh in at 265lbs <g>.. )
Happy Eating

It sounds like a menu item at the restaurant I frequent. I have one
every few weeks.

Breakfast burritos/tacos often contain beans in addition to the eggs,
sausage, potato, cheese, etc. Very tasty!

And breakfast plates in Mexican/Tex-Mex places usually include refried
beans and rice to accompany the migas, huevos rancheros, etc.

Terrific for breakfast. Use a large corn tortilla for more taste.
Add chopped tomatoes, cheese, bacon and anything else. Great and fast.

Black bean paste and huevos rancheros is quite big in Central America.

Don't forget the hot sauce.

That's just one version of the local breakfast burrito. Another being
egg, bacon, potato and chile sauce of some sort or else just diced green
chiles.

Kind of an excess of protein of course, but tasty anyway LOL!

Honestly! Bit of overkill to put mornay sauce on lobster Thermidor LOL.
It doesn't go with spam at all.

Oh Hell yes! One of my favorite breakfasts.

It started with huevos rancheros ...fried eggs & salsa... with a side order
of refried beans at some taquiria. I liked it so much I tried it at home.
Loving both eggs over easy and refried beans, I just cut to the chase. I
heat up some refritos, slide the fried eggs on top, puncture the yolks, and
top the whole thing with salsa cruda. An ice cold beer, some warm flour
tortillas, and I'm ready to read the Sunday funnies ...or snooze till
noon... whichever comes first.

I tried it in an omelet. Not great but not bad. I used three eggs
- two and a little less beans would have been better. I'll try it
again one day.

Yeah, go for it. When in doubt. Try it! I've certainly had some flops
doing that but I've also had some pretty good results as well.

With eggs in the morning, I will open a can of either pinto or black beans
(Goya if you prefer) and add a teaspoon of some puree of Chipotle (just
grind up a can of Chipotle with Adobe sauce and keep it in your
refrigerator).

If you like the taste of chipotle, you can also have on hand to add to your
eggswhile they are cooking, a butter which has been mixed with a little of
this chipotle puree.

A tortilla is a good choice for bread. You can if you want spread this
butter/puree mixture on your tortilla or put honey on it. A pre-made large
Costco pita cut in half and put in the toaster is great with honey on it too
as a little desert for this breakfast.
