Wrap filling

Method

Prepare bacon & tortilla (if not already cooked)

  1. 1

    Cook bacon (if needed)

    If you do not have pre-cooked bacon, cook 2 strips of bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp (about 6–8 minutes), turning occasionally. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool. Once cool, keep whole or halved to fit the tortilla.

  2. 2

    Warm tortilla

    Warm the tortilla for pliability: either microwave it for 10–12 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel, or heat a dry skillet over medium for 15–20 seconds per side. Set aside on a plate.

Scrambled egg mixture

  1. 3

    In a small bowl, crack 2 large eggs and add the 2 tbsp egg whites (or 2 additional egg whites if using separated eggs). Season with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Whisk briskly until combined and slightly frothy.

  2. 4

    Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add 1 tbsp unsalted butter. Allow the butter to melt and foam but not brown.

  3. 5

    Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for 5–10 seconds, then gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center with a spatula to form large, soft curds. Continue folding and moving the eggs every 10–15 seconds until they are mostly set but still slightly moist — about 1.5–2 minutes total. Remove from heat (carryover will finish cooking) to avoid overcooking.

Assemble the Sunrise Wrap

  1. 6

    Place the warmed tortilla on a flat surface. If desired, lightly spray or brush one side with nonstick cooking spray to help heat further during final sear.

  2. 7

    Lay the slice of white American cheese in the center of the tortilla. Immediately spoon the hot scrambled eggs on top of the cheese so the cheese begins to melt (arrange eggs in a roughly 6-inch long line down the center).

  3. 8

    Lay 2 strips of cooked bacon over the eggs (place them whole or halved depending on tortilla width).

  4. 9

    Fold the sides of the tortilla in toward the center, then roll from the bottom up to form a secure wrap. Tuck the ends under as you roll to keep filling contained.

  5. 10

    To lightly crisp and seal the wrap, heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place the wrap seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 1–2 minutes until golden and sealed, then flip and cook an additional 30–60 seconds. Remove and let rest 30 seconds before cutting in half.
