🛒 Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk or cream (optional, for fluffier eggs)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon butter or oil
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
- 1/2 ripe avocado, sliced
- 1 large flour tortilla (8–10 inch)
- Optional: salsa, hot sauce, or sour cream for serving
🍳 Instructions
1. Scramble the Eggs:
- In a bowl, beat the eggs with milk, salt, and pepper.
- Heat butter or oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Pour in the eggs and gently stir with a spatula until softly scrambled (2–3 minutes). Remove from heat.
2. Warm the Tortilla:
- Place the tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 20–30 seconds per side, or microwave for 10–15 seconds until soft and pliable.
3. Assemble the Burrito:
- Lay the warm tortilla flat.
- Spoon the scrambled eggs in the center.
- Sprinkle with shredded cheese (it will melt from the warmth).
- Add sliced avocado.
- Optionally, drizzle with salsa or a little sour cream.
4. Wrap it Up:
- Fold the sides of the tortilla in, then roll it tightly from the bottom up to form a burrito.
5. Serve:
- Serve immediately while warm.
- For extra flavor, lightly grill the wrapped burrito in the skillet for 1–2 minutes per side.
💡 Tips:
- Add cooked bacon or sausage for even more calories and protein.
- You can prep the filling ahead for quick assembly during busy mornings.
- Double the recipe for a bigger serving or to share.
