Ham and Cheese Egg Roll Up

There are so many reasons to love this recipe! It is so easy to make, you can make a bunch and freeze for later and you can totally make these to your liking. We love to make these with a little ham, cheese and spinach, but they would be so delicious with some green peppers, onions, bacon, green chiles and even a little hot sauce.

Egg roll ups also cook up really quick for those crazy mornings when you just don’t have time to sit down for breakfast. Just cook one up in a few minutes and it can travel with you.

How to Make Easy Egg Roll Ups

First, start by beating the two eggs in a mixing bowl until they are fluffy. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Next, add in your favorite ingredients. For this recipe we are using spinach, diced ham and colby jack cheese. Mix the ingredients into the beaten eggs.

Melt some butter or cooking oil in an 10 inch skillet over medium heat. Pour in the eggs and cook for just about 30 seconds, pushing the cooked eggs around toward the center to allow some of the uncooked eggs to spread to the bottom of the pan, just like when cooking scrambled eggs.

Next, place a tortilla shell on top of the uncooked egg mixture. Flip the egg over so the tortilla is now on the bottom of the pan.

The eggs will continue to cook and the tortilla will get warm and crisp.

Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until the eggs are cooked through and the tortilla is browned.

At this point, you could also add in some fresh salsa or even sour cream to make this more of a breakfast burrito.

Remove from the pan and carefully roll the egg roll up from one end to the other. It will be hot so handle with care!

To freeze these for future use, roll up the cooled egg roll up and wrap in plastic wrap, then foil. Place into the freezer for up to 3 months. To reheat, remove the foil and microwave for 1-2 minutes, until heated through.
