Ingredients
  

4 large eggs

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese

1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella recommended)

1/4 cup diced bell peppers (choose your favorite color)

1/4 cup diced onions

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

4 whole wheat tortillas (8-inch size)

Optional: hot sauce or salsa for a spicy kick

Instructions
 

Prep the Vegetables: Begin by heating the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the diced onions and bell peppers. Sauté for approximately 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften and become aromatic.

    Incorporate Spinach: Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and continue to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring until the spinach has wilted and is well mixed with the onions and peppers. Season with a small pinch of salt and pepper, then remove the mixture from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.

      Whisk the Eggs: In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them thoroughly until they are fully blended. Stir in the low-fat cottage cheese until evenly combined for a creamier texture that also boosts the protein content.

        Scramble the Eggs: In the same skillet used for the vegetables, pour in the egg mixture. Let it sit undisturbed for about 1 minute to form a soft base. Gently stir with a spatula, and continue to cook while stirring occasionally until the eggs are just set but remain soft and fluffy, which should take about 3-4 minutes.

          Combine Ingredients: Once the eggs are cooked to perfection, fold in the sautéed spinach and vegetable mixture along with the shredded cheese. Mix thoroughly until the cheese is melted and all ingredients are well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.

            Wrap It Up: Lightly warm the whole wheat tortillas in a clean skillet for about 15-30 seconds on each side, until they are pliable. Divide the egg and spinach mixture evenly across the tortillas. Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll them up tightly to form your wraps.

              Serve: Slice the wraps diagonally in half and serve them warm. For an optional flavor boost, offer hot sauce or salsa on the side.
