Loaded Southwestern Scramble
This southwestern scramble is easy, ready in 10 minutes, hearty, and packed with layers of flavors and textures. Red bell peppers for color and crunch along with juicy corn, green onions, cilantro, and diced MorningStar Farms® White Bean Chili Burgers for extra protein without the fat of ground beef. You can make the dish even heartier by adding baby portobello mushrooms, black beans, cheese, or work in more veggies. I served the scramble as brinner but it would work great for breakfast or brunch.
