🥛 Eggs, 2 large: Whisked to silk and softly set, complete protein and choline support calm focus and morning balance for low carb craving control. [Study]
🧂 Sea salt, 1⁄4 teaspoon: Lifts every note and helps minerals stay in sync, a small pinch that guides flavor and supports a composed start to the day.
🥩 Low carb tortilla, 1 piece about 8 inch: Soft and flexible when warmed, the wrap that holds heat, texture, and satiety in one hand, built for blood sugar balance without giving up comfort.
🌶️ Cheddar cheese, 1⁄3 cup shredded: Melts into a creamy pull, sharp and salty with a golden finish, adds satisfying fat that keeps hunger quiet and flavor bold.
🧈 Butter or ghee, 1 tablespoon: Foams then perfumes the pan, coats the eggs for a glossy curd and smooth energy that feels steady and clean.
🍋 Avocado, 3 tablespoons diced: Cool and lush, adds potassium and fiber for a calmer bite and gentle blood sugar balance. Optional
🥗 Fresh salsa or a few shakes hot sauce, about 2 tablespoons: Juicy brightness and spice that wakes the finish, a simple way to tilt the burrito toward fresh, low carb comfort. Optional
1. Warm a nonstick skillet over medium heat until a drop of water skates, then swirl in butter and listen for a soft hiss.
2. Add the diced pepper and onion, stir until glossy and fragrant, edges just turning tender, moisture mostly gone for a cleaner set.
3. Whisk eggs with sea salt until streak free and lightly frothy, a sign your curds will be soft and custardy.
4. Pour eggs into the skillet, wait a few seconds, then push slowly with a spatula, forming silky folds while the aroma deepens.
5. When the eggs look softly set and still a little glossy, fold in cheddar and bacon, let gentle heat kiss the cheese until it loosens.
6. Slide the eggs to a plate. Lay the tortilla in the dry skillet for 20 to 30 seconds per side until warm, pliable, and lightly spotty.
7. Place the warm tortilla on a board. Spoon the egg mixture in a line down the center. Add avocado or salsa if using for cool cream or fresh brightness.
8. Fold the sides in, pull the edge nearest you over the filling, then roll tight so everything tucks in and the seam sits underneath.
9. Return the burrito to the skillet seam side down. Press lightly with a spatula and listen for a gentle sizzle as the wrap turns crisp.
10. Rotate once for even color. The surface should show golden freckles and smell toasty, the filling should feel hot and cohesive.
11. Move to a plate. Rest 1 minute, then slice. Steam curls out, cheese stretches, and the first bite lands calm and satisfying.
⚠️ DO NOT SKIP: Sear the rolled burrito seam side down until it lightly crisps and seals. This locks in heat, melts the cheese through, and delivers the slow, satisfying bite you will remember.

🔑 Pro Tips
- Warm the tortilla in a dry skillet until soft and spotty, a pliable wrap prevents tears and keeps heat inside.
- Pull the eggs while still glossy, carryover heat finishes them silky so the burrito stays moist and satisfying.
- Toast the rolled burrito seam side down first, a gentle press seals it and builds a light crunch that holds on the go.
🚫 Common Mistakes
- Overfilling the tortilla, heavy fillings split the wrap and leak heat and flavor.
- Cooking eggs until dry, they turn crumbly and lose the custard feel.
- Microwaving to reheat, the wrap turns soft and damp instead of crisp.
