FAQs

Can I make these ahead?

Yes—assemble, wrap in foil, and refrigerate or freeze. Reheat when ready to enjoy.

What tortilla works best?

Flour tortillas are ideal. For low-carb, use whole wheat or gluten-free wraps.

Can I skip the cheese?

You can—but cheese adds creaminess and helps bind the filling.

Are they kid-friendly?

Absolutely—simple flavors and easy to hold make them a hit with kids.

Can I cook the eggs differently?

Yes—fried or poached eggs work too; adjust assembly accordingly.

Can I use egg whites only?

Sure—just adjust the quantity (about 3/4 cup egg whites per whole egg).

How do I prevent soggy tortillas?

Heat tortillas just before assembling, and don’t overcook eggs—excess moisture can make wraps soggy.

Can I add greens?

Yes—fold in spinach or kale while the eggs cook for a nutrient boost.

Can I add sauce inside?

Yes—but add it after reheating to prevent sogginess. Try salsa, avocado crema, or pesto.

Can I double or halve the recipe?

Yes—adjust ingredient amounts and cooking tools accordingly.

Notes

You can warm tortillas before filling to prevent cracking.

Add veggies like peppers, spinach, or green onions for extra flavor and nutrition.

Fry or poach eggs instead of scrambling, if preferred—adjust assembly accordingly.

Add sauces (e.g., salsa or avocado crema) after reheating to avoid soggy wraps.
