Ingredients

Scale

For the Burrito Wrap:

Low-carb tortilla (store-bought or homemade)
Options: Egg wraps, coconut flour wraps, or almond flour tortillas

For the Filling:

4 large eggs (scrambled)
4 strips of bacon (cooked and crumbled) or 2 sausage links (crumbled)
½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or mozzarella)
1 avocado (sliced)
¼ cup diced onions
¼ cup diced bell peppers
2 tbsp sour cream (optional)
1 tbsp butter (for cooking the eggs and sautéing vegetables)

For Garnishing:

Fresh cilantro
Salsa (sugar-free)
Jalapeños (optional)

Instructions

Prepare Your Low-Carb Wrap: If using a store-bought low-carb tortilla, heat it briefly in a dry skillet to make it pliable. For homemade egg wraps, whisk 2 eggs per wrap, pour the mixture into a greased non-stick skillet, and cook until set, flipping if necessary.
Cook Your Bacon or Sausage: In a skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels and crumble into small pieces. If using sausage, cook the crumbled sausage in the skillet until browned, then set aside.
Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, sauté the diced onions and bell peppers in a little butter until softened, enhancing the flavor and texture of the burrito.
Scramble the Eggs: In a separate pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add the whisked eggs and cook, stirring frequently, until softly scrambled. Remove from heat once cooked.
Assemble Your Burrito: Lay your low-carb wrap flat. Layer with scrambled eggs, crumbled bacon or sausage, sautéed vegetables, shredded cheese, and avocado slices. Add sour cream and sugar-free salsa if desired for extra creaminess and flavor.
Wrap and Serve: Fold the sides of the burrito and roll it tightly. For a crispy exterior, pan-fry the burrito in a little butter or oil for about a minute on each side. Garnish with fresh cilantro and extra salsa before serving.

Notes

You can substitute bacon or sausage with other protein options like grilled chicken, turkey sausage, or smoked salmon.
Add more non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, zucchini, mushrooms, or tomatoes for extra fiber and nutrients.
Enhance flavor by adding jalapeños, hot sauce, or chili powder if you like some heat.
Feel free to experiment with different keto-friendly cheeses like feta or goat cheese.
Store wrapped burritos in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months; reheat in microwave or oven.
