Ingredients

To create this delicious Spinach and Mushroom Breakfast Wrap, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
• 4 whole wheat tortillas
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Optional: hot sauce or salsa for serving

Instructions

Creating the Spinach and Mushroom Breakfast Wrap is straightforward and can be accomplished in just a few steps:

1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are tender and golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the spinach has wilted.
3. In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the mushrooms and spinach. Stir gently to scramble the eggs, cooking until they are just set.
4. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the egg mixture and remove the skillet from heat, allowing the cheese to melt slightly.
5. Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until pliable.
6. Assemble the wraps by spooning the egg mixture onto each tortilla, rolling them up tightly to enclose the filling.
7. Serve the wraps warm, with hot sauce or salsa on the side if desired.
