Fantastic Filling Ingredients
This recipe is made with protein-rich eggs and cheddar cheese as well as fibrous whole wheat tortillas and colorful veggies.

Plus, a well rounded breakfast option like this one is a great way to fight off mid-morning, sugary snack cravings!
Wrap it Up
So, how do you prepare this simple egg and veggie breakfast wrap to take on the go? The steps are simple! First, heat half of the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute until fragrant. This will take about 4 minutes. Next, add the red bell pepper and zucchini. Cook for about 5 minutes or until the veggies have softened. Add the spinach until wilted, and then remove from the pan. Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, milk, mixed herbs, salt, and pepper together. When the veggies are done, pour the egg mixture into the pan and scramble to desired doneness.Whenever you’re ready, you can assemble your wraps! Place the scrambled eggs, veggies, and cheese in the wrap and fold it up!
Tips on Storing and Reheating these Wraps
Another easy meal prep idea for these wraps is to whip them up and store them in the freezer (for up to one month). That way, you can just grab one and pop it in the oven the morning of. Heat them up while you pour your coffee and get ready to head out the door! Here are a few tips on storing and reheating:
1. Make sure the ingredients are room temperature before you roll your wraps. This will fight off sogginess.
2. Roll them tightly in plastic wrap, and then foil.
3. When you’re ready to eat them, remove the plastic wrap and roll them back in the foil. Slide them into the oven at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes if not frozen, or up to 40 minutes if frozen. Keep an eye on them to make sure they don’t burn as every oven is different! Reheating them in the oven will leave you with a crispier tortilla. Alternatively, you can reheat your unwrapped breakfast wrap in the microwave for 4 to 6 minutes, flipping it over half way through.
