Black Bean Burger Scramble with Avocado Salsa

Talk about a breakfast of champions! Start off your family’s day with this delicious breakfast and the day can only get better. Eggs are a natural shot of vitamin B12. I like mine scrambled but poached, boiled, or fried will do. Add a black bean burger and the avocado salsa, and you complete this tasty dish with healthy fats and proteins. Guaranteed you will feel satisfied and energetic. A great way to start your day!
