Tortilla Breakfast Wrap image

Inspired by the Egg and Cheese Bread Omelet, we made a complete breakfast wrap--tortilla, eggs, spinach, cheese and ham included--entirely in one skillet, for a go-to dish you can make in a hurry. Enjoy right out of the pan or with a few dashes of your favorite hot sauce.

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
One 8-inch whole-wheat tortilla
1/3 cup lightly packed baby spinach
2 slices American cheese
2 thin slices deli Black Forest ham

Steps:

  • Combine the eggs with a pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper in a small bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and swirl the skillet to coat the bottom. Working quickly, dip the tortilla in the eggs, then flip it over and place it back in the skillet (both sides should be coated in egg). Season with another pinch of salt.
  • Continue to cook the eggs until they are completely set on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Slide a large rubber or silicone spatula under the tortilla and flip the whole tortilla and egg over in one single motion. Scatter the spinach on the half of the tortilla that's closest to you, then top with the cheese and finally the ham. Continue to cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 1 minute more. Remove from the heat and slide onto a plate.
  • Starting with the side that has all the filling, start rolling the tortilla into a tight wrap or burrito. Keep the seam side facing downward so the wrap stays closed. Cut in half crosswise and serve.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 whole wheat tortillas
3/4 cup egg substitute
1/4 cup fat free mozzarella cheese
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 ounce fresh mushrooms
1 ounce zucchini, diced
1 ounce green pepper, diced
1 small shallot, sliced
5 grape tomatoes, halved
1 slice turkey bacon, diced
1 1/2 teaspoons italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon pepper
salt, to taste
2 tablespoons water
parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil, garlic, bacon, and shallots. Saute for 2 minutes.
  • Add all other vegetables, salt and pepper, and saute for 6-8 minutes, until vegetables are softened to your liking.
  • In a small bowl, beat egg substitute, water, and Italian seasoning.
  • Add egg mixture to skillet, and let it set for 3-5 minutes, almost like you are making a frittata.
  • When the mixture is starting to solidify through the middle, begin to scramble gently, and continue until eggs are cooked through.
  • Add tomatoes and mozzarella cheese, and cook until cheese is melted. Serve in tortillas, and top with parmesan if desired.

Tips:

  • Prep ahead: Save time in the morning by preparing your wraps and omelet filling the night before. Simply store them in the refrigerator overnight and assemble in the morning.
  • Use whole-wheat tortillas: Whole-wheat tortillas are a healthier option than white tortillas, as they are higher in fiber and nutrients.
  • Pack in protein: Use lean protein sources such as eggs, chicken, or tofu to make your wraps more filling and satisfying.
  • Add veggies: Load up your wraps with vegetables such as spinach, tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers to boost their nutritional value.
  • Choose healthy fats: Use healthy fats such as avocado or olive oil in your omelet or wrap filling to add flavor and richness.
  • Limit cheese: While cheese can be a delicious addition to wraps, use it sparingly as it can be high in calories and saturated fat.
  • Make it a complete meal: Serve your wraps with a side of fruit, yogurt, or nuts to make a complete and balanced breakfast.

Conclusion:

These healthy Italian breakfast wraps are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. They are packed with protein, vegetables, and healthy fats, and can be easily customized to your liking. With a little prep ahead, you can enjoy these wraps all week long. Buon Appetito!
