Ingredients
  

4 large eggs

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 green chili, finely chopped (adjust according to your spice tolerance)

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and black pepper to taste

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

4 large whole wheat tortillas

1 avocado, sliced

1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or pepper jack)

Hot sauce (optional, for serving)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them vigorously until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Set the mixture aside for later use.

    Sauté the Vegetables: Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the finely chopped onion and diced red bell pepper. Sauté the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes or until they are softened and slightly translucent.

      Add Heat and Spice: Next, stir in the finely chopped green chili, smoked paprika, and ground cumin. Continue to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the spices to become aromatic.

        Cook the Eggs: Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Gently stir the mixture, allowing the eggs to scramble. Cook for approximately 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are fully cooked but remain fluffy. Once ready, remove the skillet from heat.

          Assemble the Wraps: Lay out the whole wheat tortillas on a flat surface. Evenly distribute the scrambled egg and vegetable mixture onto each tortilla. Top each one with slices of avocado, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, and a generous amount of shredded cheese.

            Wrap Them Up: To create the wraps, fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll from the bottom upwards to securely enclose all the fillings.

              Serve: Slice each wrap in half diagonally for easy handling. Serve with your favorite hot sauce on the side for that extra burst of flavor!
