Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Cauliflower Wrap
1.1 Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
1.2 Grate the Cauliflower
Grate the cauliflower using a food processor or a box grater. Place the grated cauliflower in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 4-5 minutes until tender. Allow it to cool slightly.
1.3 Mix the Wrap Ingredients
Place the cooked cauliflower in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, eggs, shredded mozzarella, salt, and pepper. Mix well until a dough forms.
1.4 Shape and Bake
Divide the mixture into two portions and shape each into a round, flat wrap on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and firm. Let them cool slightly before using.
Step 2: Make the Burrito Filling
2.1 Cook the Eggs
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Pour in the eggs and scramble until just set.
2.2 Assemble the Burrito
Place a cauliflower wrap on a flat surface. Add half of the scrambled eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, diced avocado, and diced tomatoes. Top with a dollop of sour cream.
Step 3: Roll and Serve
3.1 Roll the Burrito
Carefully roll up the burrito, folding in the sides as you go. Repeat with the second wrap and remaining filling ingredients.
3.2 Garnish and Serve
Slice the burritos in half and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy the savory goodness!
