Breakfast Roll Up

In the spirit of fast and easy meals, here is one of my staple breakfasts: Breakfast Roll Up

You will need:
2 eggs
a splash of skim milk
1 whole wheat wrap
1 avocado
1 Roma (plum) tomato
 salt and pepper to taste

Start by cracking two eggs into a small bowl.


When you crack eggs, be sure to crack them using the counter. Never use the side of the bowl, this can cause little shards of egg shell to be driven up into the egg and they're really hard to get out.

Add a splash of skim milk to the eggs before scrambling.



This will help to make your eggs light and fluffy.
 

Next, add salt and pepper to taste.

Add your eggs to a skillet preheated over medium heat.


I prefer to use a spatula to scramble the eggs.  This also helps to keep the eggs fluffy.  My mother always used to use a fork to scramble her eggs but I think this breaks up the eggs too much and makes them too granular.


While your eggs are cooking, slice up some tomato and avocado...


...and get your whole wheat wrap ready.


Pile your eggs onto the wrap.


Next, place on your tomato and avocado.


Last, fold up your wrap and eat.

If you are eating for weight loss, try this with just egg whites, it's equally delicious.

I might also suggest spreading on a little hummus before adding your eggs to the wrap - it's delightful.
Happy eating!
