How to make a Breakfast Burrito with Bacon, Turkey & Baby Spinach
- Heat up your frying pan and add the bacon when it’s hot, no need to add butter. Fry the bacon until it’s brown & crispy.
- In the meantime, crack your eggs in a bowl & whisk them.
- When your bacon is done, turn the heat down to its lowest and transfer the bacon to a small plate or a wire rack.
- Add the butter to the pan and let it melt. Add the beaten eggs to the pan and start stirring with a fork or whisk to cook them evenly and keep them smooth. Be sure not to overcook them. Season them with ground salt & pepper once they’re done cooking.
- Lay the wrap on a plate and lightly coat the surface with some mayonnaise, then sprinkle on the grated cheese in the middle.
- Transfer your scrambled eggs from the pan onto the wrap, and arrange them in a line down the middle. Leave some space on the top and bottom to be able to fold the wrap inwards later on.
- Position your baby spinach on top of your scrambled eggs, then add the slices of turkey, and lastly, top it off with the crispy bacon.
- Wrap everything together, fold the bottom and top in first to avoid ingredients falling out while eating. If you want to you can also use some baking paper to keep everything together if you want to eat your wrap on the go or for lunch.
- Cut your wrap into 2 parts, down the middle, and enjoy a heavy protein-filled breakfast by yourself or share! Enjoy!
