Ingredients
  

4 large eggs

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese

1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella works well)

1/4 cup diced bell peppers (any color)

1/4 cup diced onions

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

4 whole wheat tortillas (8-inch)

Optional: hot sauce or salsa for serving

Instructions
 

Prep the Veggies: Start by warming the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onions and bell peppers, sautéing them for about 3-4 minutes until they become tender and fragrant.

    Add Spinach: Toss in the chopped spinach and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until wilted and mixed with the onions and peppers. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

      Whisk the Eggs: In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until fully combined. Mix in the cottage cheese for added creaminess and protein.

        Scramble the Eggs: In the same skillet, pour in the egg mixture and let it sit for a moment. Allow it to cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, then gently stir with a spatula to scramble the eggs. Cook until they are just set but still soft (about 3-4 minutes).

          Combine Ingredients: Once the eggs are cooked, fold in the sautéed spinach and vegetables, along with the shredded cheese. Stir everything together until the cheese melts, and the mixture is well combined. Adjust seasoning if needed.

            Wrap It Up: Warm the whole wheat tortillas on a clean skillet for about 15-30 seconds on each side or until pliable. Distribute the egg and spinach mixture evenly among the tortillas, then fold in the sides and roll them up tightly to form wraps.

              Serve: Cut the wraps in half diagonally, and serve warm. Add hot sauce or salsa on the side for an extra kick if desired.
