Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large whole-wheat tortilla
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced
  • 2 large eggs, scrambled
  • 2 tablespoons diced tomato
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: spinach, feta, turkey bacon, hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Warm the tortilla briefly in a dry skillet for 15–20 seconds per side until flexible.
  2. In a nonstick skillet, scramble the eggs over medium-low heat until just set; season lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. Lay the warm tortilla flat and spread 1/2 cup cottage cheese down the center in a smooth layer.
  4. Layer the scrambled eggs, avocado slices, diced tomato, and chopped cilantro on top of the cottage cheese.
  5. Squeeze 1 teaspoon lime juice over the fillings and season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  6. Fold the short ends of the tortilla in, then roll tightly from the bottom up to form the wrap.
  7. Place seam-side down in a hot skillet and press lightly; toast 1–2 minutes per side until golden and warm through.
  8. Slice the wrap in half at a diagonal and serve hot or wrap in parchment for a grab-and-go meal.

Notes

  • Make ahead: cook eggs and chop veggies the night before and assemble in the morning for a fresher wrap.
  • Prevent sogginess: cool scrambled eggs slightly and pat diced tomatoes dry before adding to the wrap.
  • Avocado tip: squeeze extra lime juice on avocado slices to reduce browning when prepping ahead.
  • Reheating: warm in a skillet or toaster oven for best texture; avoid the microwave to prevent sogginess.
