Fit + Fab Recipe: Breakfast Tostada

Breakfast Tostada

Eggs, black beans and avocado are combined with fresh salsa and a corn tortilla for this delicious, healthy twist on the classic breakfast burrito. A healthy – and tasty – way to start the day! I’m all about balanced meals – and that means you have to include some carbohydrates, like the tortilla in my delicious Breakfast Tostada. While both corn and flour tortillas provide carbohydrates, corn tortillas are higher in fiber and nearly 70 percent lower in fat and sodium than flour. And corn is higher in magnesium which contributes to healthy muscles!
