Full ingredients and instructions are also in the recipe card at the bottom of this blog post.

STEP 1: Preheat that oven to 350°F and spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

STEP 2: Cook 1 lb of bacon in a frying pan until crispy. Add it to paper towels to soak up excess grease. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

STEP 3: In a medium bowl, beat together 8 large eggs with ½ cup heavy whipping cream, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper until it's nice and mixed.

STEP 4: Pour that egg mixture into the frying pan over medium heat and scramble by gently scraping the bottom with a silicon spatula until all of the egg is cooked.

STEP 5: Now you're ready to assemble the wraps. Have each of the filling ingredients ready: Scrambled eggs, crumbled bacon, salsa and shredded cheddar cheese (the mozzarella is for topping).

STEP 6: Spoon some scrambled eggs into each tortilla wrap. Add some crumbled bacon and shredded cheese (remember to save that ¼ cup for topping!).

STEP 7: Fold it up like a burrito and place it seam side down in the baking dish. Keep going until you’ve used all the eggs and salsa, but saved a bit of cheddar cheese and bacon for toppings.

STEP 8: Sprinkle the tops with that reserved ¼ cup shredded cheddar, the ¼ cup mozzarella, and the remaining crumbled bacon. Place in the oven to bake for 10-15 minutes, or until cheese has melted and burritos are warmed through. Then serve it up warm or save for meal prep breakfast throughout the week.
