Ingredients

For the Wraps:

• 2 large tortillas (whole wheat, flour, or multigrain)
• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons milk or water (optional, for fluffiness)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil

For the Veggie Filling:

• ½ cup diced bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
• ¼ cup chopped onions
• ¼ cup diced tomatoes (optional, remove seeds for less moisture)
• ½ cup baby spinach or kale
• ¼ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack)

Simple Cooking Directions

1. Sauté veggies until soft.
2. Scramble the eggs and season well.
3. Add cheese and vegetables, then wrap everything in a warm tortilla.
4. Toast the wrap lightly and serve warm.

Step-by-Step Recipe Preparation Method

Step 1: Prepare the Veggies

1. Heat a non-stick pan with ½ tablespoon oil over medium heat.
2. Add onions and bell peppers. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened.
3. Add tomatoes and spinach, cooking until the greens wilt slightly.
4. Remove veggies from the pan and set aside.

Step 2: Cook the Eggs

1. In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
2. Melt ½ tablespoon butter in the same pan over medium-low heat.
3. Pour in the eggs and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until softly scrambled.
4. Turn off the heat — eggs should be creamy, not dry.

Step 3: Assemble the Wrap

1. Warm the tortillas on a dry skillet or directly over low flame for 10–15 seconds per side.
2. Place scrambled eggs in the center of each tortilla.
3. Add the sautéed veggies on top.
4. Sprinkle cheese generously.
5. Fold the bottom edge up, then roll tightly from one side to the other, creating a compact wrap.

Step 4: Toast the Wrap (Optional but Recommended)

1. Place the assembled wrap seam-side down on the pan.
2. Toast for 1–2 minutes on each side until lightly golden and crispy.
3. Slice in half and serve hot.

How to Serve

• Serve warm, straight from the pan.

  • Fresh fruit or yogurt parfait
  • A hot cup of coffee or smoothie
  • Salsa, ketchup, or hot sauce for dipping
