Gather These Items
Here’s what you need to make this delightful breakfast:
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup cooked turkey sausage or turkey bacon, chopped
- 1 cup fresh veggies (bell peppers, onions, spinach, or tomatoes), diced
- 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
- Hot sauce, to taste
For added variety, feel free to substitute turkey sausage with minced veggies for a vegetarian option or switch out the cheddar cheese for another favorite cheese!
Directions to Follow
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs and season them lightly with salt and pepper.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add a bit of oil. Pour in the eggs, stirring gently for about 3 to 4 minutes until they’re fluffy.
- Add the chopped turkey sausage or turkey bacon to the skillet. Sauté over medium heat until heated through and slightly browned, which should take about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Lay a flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon a quarter of the scrambled eggs into the center of the tortilla.
- Layer on the turkey sausage or bacon, sprinkle with cheddar cheese, and add your choice of diced veggies. Top it off with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt and a drizzle of hot sauce, if desired.
- Carefully fold in the edges of the tortilla around the filling, creating pleats. Press lightly to compact everything.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and place the wrap seam side down. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip the crunchwrap and cook the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes.
- Remove from the skillet, let it rest for a minute, then slice in half and serve warm.
