Breakfast Tortilla Wrap with Egg, Bacon & Spinach

A Note on This Recipe

This breakfast wrap has a clever little trick that makes it much easier to pull off than it looks — once the eggs are in the pan, the tortilla goes on top before flipping, so everything stays together in one neat move.

Everything happens in a single pan in about 10 minutes: crispy bacon, sautéed spinach with a drizzle of balsamic glaze, soft eggs, and melted cheese, all wrapped in a warm, lightly crisped tortilla. The balsamic glaze on the spinach is optional but worth trying — it adds a subtle tang that balances the richness of the egg and bacon nicely.

How to Make It

Cook the Bacon

Cook the bacon over medium heat until crisp and browned. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

Pour off most of the bacon fat from the pan, but don’t wipe it clean.

Cook the Spinach

Add the spinach and chopped bacon to the pan. Lightly season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then drizzle with balsamic glaze.

Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the spinach is wilted. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Cook the Eggs

Beat the eggs with salt and pepper until smooth. Heat the pan with a little oil over medium heat, then reduce to medium-low. Pour in the eggs and spread evenly.

Add the Tortilla

When the bottom is set but the top is still slightly runny, place the tortilla over the eggs and press it down gently so it makes contact with the egg.

Once the tortilla is lightly bonded to the egg, flip the whole thing in one confident motion directly in the pan — the tortilla will hold everything together.

Assemble and Finish

Spread the spinach and bacon mixture down the center and top with cheese. Cover the pan and cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crisp on the bottom.

Roll and Serve

Transfer to a flat surface, roll up tightly, and cut in half to serve.
