Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Basic Egg Wraps (Makes 4 Wraps):

• 6 large eggs
• ¼ cup milk (optional, for fluffier eggs)
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or mozzarella)
• 1 cup diced vegetables (bell peppers, spinach, onions, or tomatoes)
• 4 large flour tortillas (8–10 inch)

Optional Add-Ins:

• ½ cup cooked beef or chicken (sliced or crumbled)
• ½ avocado, sliced
• ¼ cup salsa or hot sauce
• Fresh herbs (cilantro, chives, parsley)
• Cooked hash browns or tater tots

Tools You’ll Need
Non-stick skillet
Whisk or fork
Spatula
Mixing bowl
Large spoon
Foil or parchment (for wrapping)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Scramble the Eggs
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add milk (if using), salt, and pepper.
Whisk until well combined.
Heat olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently, until soft curds form.
Remove from heat when eggs are just set—they’ll continue to cook in the wrap.

Step 2: Warm the Tortillas
While the eggs cook, warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 10–15 seconds until pliable.

Step 3: Assemble the Wraps
Lay each tortilla flat.
Spoon scrambled eggs down the center.
Top with shredded cheese, chopped veggies, and any optional add-ins like meat, salsa, or avocado.

Step 4: Wrap It Up
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top.
If eating immediately, place seam-side down and serve warm.

Step 5: For Toasted Wraps
Optional: Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and place each wrap seam-side down.
Toast for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.

Step 6: For Freezing or Meal Prep
Wrap each assembled wrap in foil or parchment, then place in a freezer bag.
To reheat, unwrap and microwave for 1–2 minutes, or toast in a skillet until heated through.

Tips for the Best Egg Wraps
Use Fresh Ingredients – Crisp veggies and good-quality cheese make a difference.
Don’t Overcook Eggs – Soft-scrambled is best so they don’t dry out in the wrap.
Layer Wisely – Put cheese near the warm eggs so it melts nicely.
Wrap Tightly – Fold like a burrito to keep everything inside.
Make It Spicy – Add jalapeños, chipotle mayo, or a dash of hot sauce.

Serving Suggestions
With Salsa or Hot Sauce – For a zesty kick.
Alongside Fresh Fruit – Balance the savory with a sweet side.
With Yogurt & Granola – A complete breakfast plate.
With a Smoothie – Quick, energizing, and refreshing.
As a Brunch Spread – Make a wrap bar with toppings for guests to build their own.
