Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Eggs
- 1 spray Non-stick cooking spray
- 0.5 cup Bell pepper (any color), diced
- 1 handful Spinach leaves
- 2 tablespoons Low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 piece Whole wheat tortilla
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them with a fork until well-blended. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly coat it with non-stick cooking spray.
Add the bell peppers to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Reduce the skillet heat to low and add the whisked eggs. Slowly scramble the eggs by gently stirring with a spatula until fully cooked, about 2-3 minutes.
Once the eggs are almost done, toss in the spinach leaves and cook for another 30 seconds until wilted.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the scrambled eggs and let it melt slightly.
Warm up the whole wheat tortilla in another skillet or in the microwave for 10-15 seconds until pliable.
Spoon the scrambled egg and veggie mixture into the center of the tortilla. Add a drizzle of hot sauce if desired.
Wrap up the tortilla, tucking in the ends to create a burrito-style wrap. Serve immediately and enjoy!
