SOUTHWEST TORTILLA SCRAMBLE

Here's my version of a deconstructed breakfast burrito that's actually good for you. Go for hefty corn tortillas in this recipe. Flour ones can get lost in the scramble. -Christine Schenher, Exeter, California

Meanwhile, mix eggs, cream, salt, pepper, chili powder, and garlic in a medium bowl.
Whisk vigorously until the eggs are a uniform color with no streaks.

Cumin and salsa help spice up the typical, staid plate of scrambled eggs. To take this dish with you, wrap the eggs in a whole-wheat tortilla, and voila -- you have a breakfast burrito.

Steps:

In a medium nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium. Add bell pepper and cook until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add scallion, corn, and cumin and cook until scallion has wilted, 2 to 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Remove to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Wipe skillet with a paper towel; reserve skillet.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and whites, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, and 2 teaspoons water until well combined. In reserved skillet, heat remaining teaspoon oil over medium. Add egg mixture and cook until bottom is set, 30 seconds. Gently stir with a spatula to bring cooked curds up from the bottom of the pan. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes. Stir in cheese and reserved vegetables. Serve with salsa, avocado, and tortillas.
