Swiss Chard Breakfast Burritos

Breakfast burritos with no cheese?  And swiss chard?  Well, my kids will eat them with out complaint,  and swisschard grows well in our garden- so this recipe is a keeper!  I have adapted it only slightly from the original:  http://foodplainandsimple.blogspot.com.

I also love that it is fast and easy to put together.
1.  Sautee about 1/2 bunch of chopped chard (stems and all) in 2 tbsp. butter. Put the lid on the pan and allow the chard to wilt and the stems to soften.

2.  Then, add the eggs. I used 4 eggs and the same amount of milk as I would have to make scrambled eggs (about 1/4 cup).  Mix them well in a bowl, then pour the contents into the pan with the greens.

3.  Add salt and pepper. Cook as if you were making scrambled eggs.

4.  Spoon the eggs onto corn tortilla shells.  (I put 6 corn tortillas on a cookie sheet and put them on broil in the oven for a few minutes.  And turn them, and then take them out and put them in between tinfoil to stay warm).  May serve with salsa or sour cream.
