Ingredients
Egg Mixture
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Vegetables and Cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- ¼ cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
Wrap
- 2 large flour tortillas (8–10 inch)
Optional Fillings
- Diced tomatoes
- Avocado slices
- Hot sauce
Instructions
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
- Sauté Spinach: Heat the olive oil or butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes until wilted and tender.
- Cook Eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the spinach, stirring gently and continuously to scramble the eggs until they are softly cooked through but still moist.
- Add Cheese: Remove the skillet from heat and immediately stir in the shredded cheese to allow it to melt into the warm eggs and spinach mixture.
- Warm Tortillas: Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat or briefly microwave them until warm and pliable.
- Assemble Wraps: Divide the egg and spinach mixture evenly between the two warmed tortillas. Add any optional fillings like diced tomatoes, avocado slices, or hot sauce if desired.
- Roll and Serve: Roll up each tortilla into a wrap, tucking in the sides as you go to secure the filling. Serve warm immediately or wrap in foil for an easy on-the-go meal.
Notes
- You can prepare the egg and spinach filling ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 2 days.
- To make it dairy-free, use plant-based cheese or omit the cheese altogether.
- Whole wheat, low-carb, or gluten-free tortillas can be used as alternatives.
- Feel free to customize with other toppings such as salsa, hot sauce, or avocado for added flavor.
