4. 1 teaspoon butter or olive oil
5. 2 slices cooked bacon or 2 ounces ground breakfast sausage (sugar-free)

7. 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar or your favorite keto cheese
8. 1 tablespoon diced red onion (optional)
9. 2 tablespoons diced tomato or salsa (low-carb)
10. Hot sauce (optional, to taste)

For the Wrap:

1. 2 large Romaine, butter, or iceberg lettuce leaves (washed and patted dry)

Instructions:

Step 1: Cook the Eggs

• In a bowl, whisk the eggs with heavy cream (if using), salt, and pepper.
• Heat butter or oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat.
• Pour in the eggs and scramble gently until just set. Remove from heat.

Step 2: Prep the Filling

• If using sausage, cook it in a skillet until browned and fully cooked.
• If using bacon, make sure it's cooked to your desired crispness.
• Slice avocado and chop any desired veggies.

Step 3: Assemble the Wrap

• Lay the lettuce leaves flat and slightly overlap them if needed for extra coverage.
• Spoon the scrambled eggs in the center.
• Top with sausage or bacon, avocado, cheese, onion, tomato/salsa, and hot sauce if desired.

Step 4: Wrap and Serve

• Carefully fold the sides of the lettuce over the filling, then roll it up burrito-style.
• Secure with parchment or foil for easier handling, or enjoy immediately with a fork and knife.

Optional Variations:

• Veggie Boost: Add sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers.
• Dairy-Free: Skip the cheese or use a keto-friendly non-dairy option.
• Meal Prep: Cook a batch of filling ahead of time and store in the fridge for 2–3 days. Just reheat and wrap!
