How to Make It
Prep is simple and speedy with these steps!
Whisk
Whisk the eggs in a bowl until well combined and fluffy. Then, pour the eggs into a hot skillet. Cook, stirring gently, until fluffy and fully set, about 3-4 minutes.
Sauté
In the same skillet, add your chopped sausage or bacon. Sauté until crispy and browned, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Assemble
On a large tortilla, layer the scrambled eggs, cooked sausage or bacon, shredded cheese, diced veggies, and a dollop of sour cream. Add hot sauce if desired.
Fold
Carefully bring the edges of the tortilla towards the center, tucking in all the fillings. Fold to create a compact wrap.
Cook
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the crunchwrap seam-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Flip and repeat for the other side.
