Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 large Low-carb tortillas
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, chopped
- 0.25 cup Salsa (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well blended. Season with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and coat the skillet completely.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit for a minute until the edges begin to set.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs from the outside in, slowly forming soft curds.
When the eggs are almost fully cooked but still slightly runny, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over them and fold the curds to let the cheese melt.
Once the eggs are fully cooked and creamy, remove from heat.
Warm each low-carb tortilla in another pan or in the microwave for a few seconds until pliable.
Spoon half of the cheesy scrambled eggs down the center of each tortilla.
Top the eggs with chopped green onions and a spoonful of salsa if desired.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll up to form a burrito.
Serve immediately, enjoying the flavorful combination of eggs and cheese in a low-carb wrap.
