How to make it

  1. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk until just combined.

  2. Warm the beans in a small pan or the microwave while you heat the tortillas in a dry skillet, about 20 seconds per side.

  3. Melt the butter in a nonstick pan over medium-low. Pour in the eggs and stir slowly, pulling them off the heat while they're still a little soft.

  4. Fill each tortilla with eggs, beans, and a little cheese.

  5. Finish with hot sauce and eat right away, while the tortillas are still warm.
