Yield: 2 burritos

Ingredient Checklist

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp butter or coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
  • 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1/4 cup cooked bacon or sausage (optional)
  • 2 large lettuce leaves or keto-friendly tortillas
  • 1/2 avocado, sliced (optional)
  • 2 tbsp salsa (optional)

Instructions Checklist

Step 1

  • Prepare the Eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper.

Step 2

  • Cook the Vegetables: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter or coconut oil.
  • Add the diced bell peppers and onions. Cook until they are soft, about 3–4 minutes.

Step 3

  • Cook the Eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the vegetables. Stir gently with a spatula until the eggs are fully cooked but still soft, about 3–5 minutes.
  • Add the shredded cheese and cooked bacon or sausage if using, and mix until the cheese is melted and everything is well combined

Step 4

  • Assemble the Burrito: Lay out the lettuce leaves or keto-friendly tortillas.
  • Spoon half of the egg mixture onto each leaf or tortilla.
  • Top with avocado slices and salsa if desired.
  • Roll up the leaf or tortilla to form a burrito.

Step 5

Tips:

Customization: Feel free to customize the filling with your favorite low-carb vegetables or meats.

Tortilla Alternative: If you don’t have keto-friendly tortillas, large lettuce leaves make a great low-carb wrap.

Meal Prep: Make the filling ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator. In the morning, simply reheat and assemble your burrito.

Cheese Options: Experiment with different types of cheese for varied flavors.

Enjoy this simple and tasty keto breakfast burrito that’s perfect for beginners!
