Crispy Egg Wraps

4 servings (1 wrap each) Prep time: 15 min Cook time: 15 min
I love a savory breakfast, and this recipe for Crispy Egg Wraps with a chopped veggie salad is a quick and easy way to enjoy one. Eggs are one of my most consistent go-to protein sources. They’re also a rich source of choline, a nutrient that an estimated 90% of US adults are deficient in that is critical for metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, brain development, and more. In eggs, choline is naturally bound to phospholipids which aid in their digestion and absorption—a pretty cool example of nutrient synergy! The warm and crispy wrap pairs perfectly with the fresh cucumber, tomato, and olive salad to create a full meal that hits all the important nutritional marks. There is research that shows eating a protein-rich breakfast reduces cravings and overall caloric intake throughout the day, compared to one rich in carbohydrates and sugar. I hope you love it. Wishing you health and happiness, Mark Hyman, MD
