WW "Wake-Up Wraps"

Before deciding to "go healthy" my quick go-to breakfast when I was running late or rounding at the hospital became the Dunkin Donuts Wake-up Wrap. Although not terrible in terms of points (5 for egg and cheese and 6 for bacon,egg, and cheese), it is full of processed ingredients. Right now I have an excess of daily WW points because I am exclusively breast-feeding baby bear, but the day will come when I need to trim my points. Once I decided to start making my own, I make extras and store them in the fridge to eat for the next 2 days. They heat up in the oven at 350 in about 5 minutes.

Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Wraps
At the top right - 7 point plus wrap for the bug
On the bottom left - 3 point plus wrap for me
Highest 7 point wrap is made of the following:
  • Mission flour tortilla soft taco size (3)
  • One Whole Scrambled Egg (2)
  • One slice Oscar Meyer Low Sodium Turkey Bacon (1)
  • Half an ounce of 2% milk sharp shredded cheddar (1)
Lowest 3 point wrap is made of the following:
  • Trader Joe's Low-Carb Whole Wheat tortilla shell (1)
  • 3 tablespoons Trader Joe's Cage Free Liquid Egg Whites (0)
  • One slice Oscar Meyer Low Sodium Turkey Bacon (1)
  • Half an ounce of 2% milk sharp shredded cheddar (1)
Depending on which ingredients you have available there are a variety of options. Another great option would be to forgo the bacon and scramble the egg with some veggies (mushroom, spinach, onion, etc).
