  • Total Time
This recipe makes 1 serving
Ingredients:

2 eggs, lightly beaten (or 1 whole egg + 2 whites) with a pinch of salt and pepper
• 1 whole-grain tortilla (~7 inches)
• Lettuce leaves
• 2 slices cooked turkey bacon
• 2 to 4 tomato slices
• ¼ to ½ avocado, sliced

Preparation:

Liberally coat a 10-inch skillet with oil spray and warm over medium heat. Add the eggs, tilting the skillet to evenly distribute them over the bottom of the hot pan.

Dip one side of the tortilla into the egg, giving it a light coat. Then, place the un-dipped side flat on the pan into the eggs. Let the eggs cook and firm a bit, about 30 seconds. Using a wide spatula, carefully flip the entire thing over like a huge pancake (eggs and tortilla in one careful swoop).

Layer on the lettuce, bacon, tomato and avocado on ONLY half the tortilla. Then, fold the tortilla half without toppings over the top with the toppings. Transfer to a serving plate, slice in half and dig in!
