Ingredients
- 4 pieces Whole wheat tortillas
- 8 slices Turkey bacon
- 8 large eggs worth Egg whites
- 1 medium, diced Red bell pepper
- 1 cup, fresh Spinach
- 1 medium, sliced Avocado
- 0.5 cup Salsa
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add turkey bacon slices and cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 2
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add olive oil. Add diced red bell pepper and sauté for 3 minutes until softened.
Step 3
Add fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until wilted.
Step 4
Pour egg whites into the skillet with the vegetables and scramble gently. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the egg whites are fully set.
Step 5
Warm the whole wheat tortillas in another clean, dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until pliable and slightly browned.
Step 6
To assemble the tacos, place a portion of the egg and vegetable scramble onto each tortilla. Top with crispy turkey bacon, avocado slices, and a spoonful of salsa.
Step 7
Fold the tortillas over the filling and serve immediately.
