Fluffy eggs, ham, cheddar, and herbs wrapped in spinach tortillas for a colorful morning meal.

# What You Need:

→ Eggs

01 - 6 large eggs
02 - 2 tablespoons milk
03 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
04 - Salt to taste
05 - Black pepper to taste

→ Fillings

06 - 4 large spinach tortillas
07 - 4 ounces cooked ham, sliced or diced
08 - 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
09 - 1/4 cup fresh baby spinach, chopped
10 - 2 tablespoons fresh chives or green onions, finely sliced

→ Optional

11 - 1 avocado, sliced
12 - Hot sauce or salsa for serving

# Steps:

01 - In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
02 - Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the egg mixture and cook gently, stirring frequently, until softly scrambled and just set. Remove from heat.
03 - Warm the spinach tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 10 to 15 seconds to make them pliable.
04 - Lay each tortilla flat. Evenly divide scrambled eggs, ham, cheddar cheese, chopped spinach, and chives among the tortillas. Add avocado slices if using.
05 - Fold in the sides and roll up each tortilla tightly to form a wrap.
06 - Place the wraps seam side down in a warm skillet for 1 to 2 minutes to toast lightly and help seal.
07 - Slice in half and serve immediately with hot sauce or salsa, if desired.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in under 20 minutes, which means you can actually make it on a weekday morning without losing your mind.
  • The spinach tortilla does all the heavy lifting visually, making breakfast feel special without any fussy techniques.
  • Kids and adults both get excited about eating something that looks this vibrant and tastes genuinely good.
02 -
  • Don't cook the eggs on high heat or they'll become rubbery and separate, turning your beautiful wrap into something dry and disappointing.
  • Warming the tortillas beforehand is non-negotiable, because a cold tortilla will crack when you roll it, no matter how gently you try.
03 -
  • Use a non-stick skillet for the eggs, because even a teaspoon of butter sticks better in a regular pan and the eggs don't cook as evenly.
  • Chop or dice your ham ahead of time, because it makes assembly feel effortless and keeps you from juggling tasks while the eggs are still cooking.
