Heat the canola oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the onions and peppers until onions are softened and peppers are slightly charred, about 8 minutes. Add black beans and red pepper flakes; cook until warmed through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; transfer to a dish.
Whisk together eggs and egg whites; stir in cheese.
Spray the skillet with non-stick cooking spray; reheat the skillet over a medium heat. Reduce heat to low; add eggs, scrambling until cooked through, about 3 minutes.
Spread each tortilla with 1 T. sour cream and 1 T. salsa; layer with 1/4 of the black bean mixture, 1/4 of the scrambled eggs, a little spinach, some diced tomato and 1/4 of the avocado. Sprinkle on hot sauce, to taste. Roll up burrito-style. Serve.
