Ingredients

  • Large eggs - 4
  • Heavy cream - 2 tablespoons
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Chopped bell pepper (red or green) - 1/4 cup
  • Chopped onion - 1/4 cup
  • Shredded cheese (cheddar or jack) - 1/2 cup
  • Low-carb tortillas - 2
  • Avocado - 1/2, sliced
  • Fresh cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped

Steps

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped bell pepper and onion, sautéing until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are scrambled and just set, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the shredded cheese until melted and well combined.
  5. Warm the low-carb tortillas in a separate skillet or microwave for a few seconds until pliable.
  6. Divide the egg mixture evenly between the two tortillas, wrapping them like a burrito.
  7. Serve with sliced avocado on the side and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
