• 1 teaspoon olive oil

• 1 T. finely chopped green onions

• 1/2 small green pepper finely chopped

• 2 slices avocado

• 2 T. finely chopped cilantro

• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• pepper to taste

 

Directions:

 

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees, slice the avocado and take out salsa.

Heat the oil in a frying pan while you are chopping the onions, pepper and cilantro.

Sauté the onions and green pepper in the oil over medium heat for 5 minutes.

While the onions are cooking, beat the eggs with the salt and pepper.

Put the tortillas in the oven directly on the shelf to get warm and set a timer for 5 minutes.

Add the eggs to the pan and stir with a wooden spoon until the eggs are cooked through.

Take out tortillas and spoon the egg mixture onto each tortilla, top with salsa, 1 slice of avocado and a half the cilantro. Spread it out, leaving room at the ends, roll it up and enjoy!
