Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 pieces low-carb tortillas (6-8 inches)
- 4 pieces cooked bacon strips
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 0.25 cup salsa
- 1 pieces avocado, sliced
- 2 tablespoons scallions, chopped
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and black pepper until well mixed.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the butter, allowing it to melt and coat the bottom of the pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook gently, stirring occasionally with a spatula, until the eggs are just set and still slightly runny, around 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
Heat the low-carb tortillas in the microwave for about 15 seconds or in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds on each side until pliable and warm.
Lay the warmed tortillas on a clean work surface. Divide the scrambled eggs evenly between the two and place them in the center of each tortilla.
On top of the eggs, evenly distribute the cooked bacon strips, shredded cheddar cheese, sliced avocado, chopped scallions, a dollop of sour cream, and a spoonful of salsa onto each tortilla.
Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll them tightly to form burritos.
Optional: Place the burritos seam-side down in the hot skillet over low heat for 1-2 minutes on each side to slightly crisp up the tortilla and melt the cheese further.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb breakfast burrito.
