Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices bacon
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 4 leaves romaine lettuce leaves
- 0.25 cup cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chives
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat.
Fry the bacon slices in the preheated pan until crispy, about 5-7 minutes, then remove and drain on a paper towel.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.
Melt the butter in the same pan over medium-low heat, then pour in the egg mixture.
Gently stir with a spatula, being patient and allowing large curds to form, until the eggs are just set, about 3-4 minutes.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the eggs and turn off the heat. Cover the pan briefly to let the cheese melt.
Lay two lettuce leaves slightly overlapping on a clean surface. Distribute half of the scrambled eggs on top of the leaves, followed by two slices of bacon.
Sprinkle chopped chives over the bacon and eggs.
Roll up the lettuce leaves tightly, tucking in the sides as you go, to form a neat roll.
Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to create a second roll.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low carb bacon and egg rolls!
