Ingredients
- 1 egg or 2 egg whites
- 30 mL (2 tbsp) diced red bell pepper
- 30 mL (2 tbsp) grated zucchini or carrot
- Pinch fresh ground black pepper
- 1 small whole grain flour tortilla
- 15 mL (1 tbsp) grated light old Cheddar or Swiss cheese
Directions
- In a small bowl with a fork, beat together egg, red pepper, zucchini and pepper.
- Spray a small 20 cm (8 inch) nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place on medium heat. Pour egg mixture into pan, swirling pan to coat evenly. Let cook for about 2 minutes or until edge is light golden. Using a spatula, lift around edges and flip egg over and cook for another 30 seconds or until set and light golden.
- Slide egg onto flour tortilla and sprinkle with cheese. Roll up and enjoy!
Tips
- Get your little chefs in the kitchen to help whisk the egg. Older kids can dice the red pepper and grate the zucchini.
- Switch it up! There are endless combinations of veggies and cheese to make this a whole new roll up every time you enjoy it.
- Shortcut microwave version: Spray small microwaveable rimmed dinner plate with cooking spray. Pour egg mixture into centre of plate. Place in microwave and cook on HIGH for 30-second intervals until set.
