If you are trying to lose weight or maintain a healthy body shape/weight, or just want something tasty for breakfast, read on!

Ingredients

  • Olive oil, margarine or flaxseed margarine
  • 2-3 eggs
  • Veggies (onion, green pepper, red pepper)
  • Flour Tortillas
  • Salsa
  • Salt and pepper

Steps

  1. Crack 2-3 eggs (for one person) into a bowl or large cup.
  2. Whisk with fork or spoon until the yolk and the whites are all mixed together.
  3. Leave it aside. Get out a medium pan and grease it with a healthy oil; use extra virgin olive oil if you can, or margarine (flaxseed margarine is great).
  4. Leave the pan aside with the eggs. Now start chopping up the veggies you prefer into bite sized pieces.
  5. Put the pan on the stove top and turn to medium-low heat to start. Add the veggies after about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Cook the veggies until a bit less then golden-brown. Or until the smell of the yummy looking veggies hits your face.
  7. Add the eggs and do a chopping/mixing motion to make them scrambled eggs.
  8. Take off burner when golden looking. Let them cool a bit. You still want them warm and not ice cold.
  9. Take out two tortillas and place them on a plate. Add a small line of the eggs down the middle, depending on the size of the tortilla.
  10. Add salt and pepper. This is optional.
  11. Add salsa. This is optional.
  12. Roll it up. Spin the plate/tortilla so that the line of salsa and egg are facing you vertically.
  13. Take the bottom of the tortilla and bring it up 1/5 of the tortilla.
  14. While one finger on your left hand is holding that down, start to roll it form the right to the left. The bent end will keep the filling from falling out the back when you pick it up to eat it.
  15. Do the same with the other tortilla.
  16. Stick a tooth-pick in each one.
  17. Chow down on your healthy breakfast.
  18. Finished.
