I have a love/hate relationship with Pinterest and Instagram. It's a wonderful space to find ideas and be inspired but at the same time, it can feel overwhelming. It can feel easy to think that all those beautiful photos of food are out of reach. This cilantro scramble is two-fold. For starters, it uses my black bean component (which is such a great building block for recipes like this!) Secondly, it was suppose to be an omelette but it stuck and turned into a scramble. Instead of trying for the perfect omelette, I wanted to share this scramble instead. Because guess what? It's just as delicious.
Grain Bowl/Burrito: Make up a big bowl of your favorite grains like brown rice or millet and use the eggs/beans to top. Or wrap the eggs and beans in a large wrap for an on-the-go breakfast.
Omelette: As mentioned above, you could easily turn this into an omelette instead of a scramble.
Vegan: This might feel like it defeats the purpose but you could easily drop the eggs/cheese and do a cilantro tofu scramble instead.
Black beans are a staple in my kitchen. I always keep a container of dried black beans and usually a couple small jars of cooked black beans in the freezer. I'm also often making these spiced black beans for use in recipes like this cilantro scramble, enchiladas, and tacos.

This looks so delicious! I definitely crave breakfasts like this in the Spring!
Ella,, this cilantro scramble looks so good. Cilantro is one of my favorite herbs. And the black beans... I grew up eating black beans and totally love them. They are a staple in my pantry.
This is great! I never get tired of the beans + eggs combo, it's one of my go to meals. I need to make a pot of beans to have on hand, I'm looking forward to trying your recipe. 🙂
This recipe looks delicious! Great idea to put beans with eggs instead of greasy bacon or fried potatoes! This should be filling too. Will be trying this soon. Thanks!
The spicy black beans are DELICIOUS! This will be a staple breakfast recipe for us. Quick, easy & tasty, and we usually have all of the ingredients on hand. Can’t wait to use the remainder of the black beans in something for lunch. Thank you!
