Ground Beef with veggies breakfast wrap | Simple Meal

I’ve always been a fan of brunch. I love breakfast and I love lunch but lately, it’s become a sort of obsession mainly because I practice intermittent fasting.

If you’re not familiar with intermittent fasting, it’s where you only eat during a specific time. The rest of the time is considered fasting. During this time your body is getting a break from constantly digesting your food.

Studies show this helps your body to heal. So I usually start between 11 am to 12 pm and I finish around 6 to 6:30 pm. That way my body gets to rest for at least 16 hours.

I recently pulled out my library of food photos and noticed a good majority of them included eggs. So it’s only right for my first non-recipe to be what I would consider brunch.

Non Recipe

My definition of a meal idea is simply an idea of what you can cook without measurements or saying you have to use these exact ingredients. I have re-created some great recipes by substituting what they use for things that are actually in my fridge and you know what it still came out good.

So I want to take this time to encourage all my readers to not fret if you don’t have everything that you see in my photos or whatever I place on the ingredients list. The things I list are things that you can use. They are not things you MUST use.

I started finding joy in cooking when I tried out things that worked for my taste buds. What works for my taste buds may not work for yours.

The good thing is we all have an idea of what we like, so if I use smoked salmon in my egg bowl you may want to replace it with sausage links and that’s fine.

I’m just here to give you an idea and you can create something fairly similar depending on what you want and what your kitchen has.

Ingredients You Can Use

Things I used for my breakfast wrap.

1. Siete tortilla wrap. If you didn’t know by now I practice keto/paleo so the wrap I use which is a siete brand can be found at Wholefoods and Wegmans. It is made with almond flour.
2. Eggs – Usually Free Range Eggs if I can find them.
3. Grilled Onions and Peppers – If you’re more of a raw or pickled onions fan that works too.
4. Fresh tomatoes – Always organic for me due to tomatoes landing on the dirty dozen list
5. Spring Mix – Organic
6. Melted Cheese – You can use whatever cheese works for you. I normally use violife vegan cheese because every time I go back to dairy, even healthier versions, I quickly realize it doesn’t agree well with my body.

If you don’t like the taste of vegan cheese try out the Violife brand if you can find it. The ingredients are pretty good and the taste isn’t bad. If you don’t like vegan cheese because it doesn’t melt check out my video on how to melt vegan cheese right here.

Also, I usually try to add a few raw veggies to whatever I have so that I can mix up my nutrient intake, which is why I added the spring mix and tomatoes.

How To Make the Ground Beef with Veggies Breakfast Wrap

I usually start off grilling my tortilla wrap. If you decide to use an almond flour wrap you have to warm it up or grill it for it to be pliable. It takes about 30 secs to a minute. Place it in the pan using a little oil or oil spray (I prefer avocado oil). If the heat is Medium high let it sit on each side for about 30 seconds. If you start to see it bubble a little that means it’s time to turn it over.

Then I grill the onions and pepper. You can add mushrooms and any kind of veggie of choice. I season it up with Himalayan sea salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and cracked pepper.

By this point I usually have my spring mix assembled at the bottom of my tortilla wrap so when I top it with the grilled veggies the heat doesn’t cause it to break through the wrap.

Then I make my eggs, some days they’re fried and other days they’re scrambled soft. I top my wrap with my eggs and then melt the vegan cheese over it. I chop up a few fresh tomatoes and if I have avocado slices or guacamole you better believe that’s going on there as well.

Now I am a saucy person, meaning I like my foods topped with sauce galore. Two to three different sauces is my jam. So I’ll usually add another sauce like my jalapeno aioli to top it off.

And how you ask is this three sauces? Well it depends on how you make it. If you’re a sauce lover like me and you’re into sunny side up or fried eggs, the sauce that the egg yoke creates is one, the 2nd is if you add the guacamole and the third is the jalapeno aioli. I’ll link my easy 2 – 3 minute jalapeno aioli recipe here.

FOOD TIP:

If you have a Costco around you they have these individual-sized guacamole cups that I buy in bulk and freeze. I’m a fan of avocados, but lately, I’ve been running into avocados that never ripen.

I heard it’s because they freeze them so they can last longer. In order to make life easier I keep around two avocados on hand, but I keep my freezer stocked with guacamole cups as well.

I hope you enjoy this recipe. I truly enjoyed it when I ate it and I’m sure if you use what you like you’ll enjoy it just the same. Stick around because I have some other non-recipe ideas coming soon.
