"Wake up Wraps" Revamped

“Wake Up Wraps” Each month I seem to have some inspiration based on some experience I had with a particular food. Last month was Irish Soda Bread. This month, after going to Dunkin’ Donuts and trying their “Wake Up Wrap” I really liked the idea, but it needed some tweaking. This gave me a great idea. It was a simple and quick snack or breakfast which with some changes and a freshly made taste would be something I’d love to eat. I start out with a tortilla that I warmed up in the oven and then whisk some eggs together with a little water for a lighter texture, basically an omelet, then pour out a very thin layer of egg mixture on to a saut pan while a slice of cheese and whatever other ingredients are available. Thinly sliced mushrooms or sautéed peppers are among some of my favorites for a very savory vegetarian option. I will also sometimes add meats, like ham, bacon, and sausage which make for a great breakfast choice. Once I have the extras, my omelet is just about done cooking. The consistency is very crepe-like and the swirling and flipping method is how I cook the egg. Then, I put the thin, warm omelet over the tortilla, cheese, and toppings which melt the cheese just right. I then drizzle on a little bit of ketchup, fold the wrap in half and am good to go. These are great for hurried mornings or an afternoon snack. With endless possibilities, this revamped version of a Dunkin’ Donuts classic is great for anyone, and makes an easy and tasty meal for anyone on the go. -BD
