🛒 Ingredients

🥓 83g turkey bacon (4-5 strips)
🦃 230g 93/7 ground turkey (half a pound)
🥚 225g Kirkland egg whites (half a carton)
🥑 20g avocado oil
🧀 200g Kirkland mozzarella cheese
🫓 4 count Mission Carb Balance 10" tortillas
🥣 50g Hellmann's Light Mayo
🍅 50g Heinz Simply Ketchup
🌶️ 20g Taco Bell Diablo

🥣 Step-by-Step Instructions

Cook the Meat: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 20g avocado oil. Add 83g chopped turkey bacon and 230g ground turkey, cooking until browned and cooked through. Season with salt and pepper.
Scramble the Eggs: Pour 225g egg whites directly into the skillet with the cooked meat. Scramble gently until fluffy and completely set, then remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper.
Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together 50g light mayo, 50g ketchup, and 20g Taco Bell Diablo sauce. Add as much black pepper as you’d like.
Assemble & Sear: Spread sauce evenly across half of each 10" tortilla. Top with 200g mozzarella (divided by 4) and the warm turkey-egg mixture. Fold in half and sear in a pan or air fryer until golden brown, crispy, and the cheese is fully melted.
Portion & Serve: Eat immediately or separate into four equal servings wrapped in foil for effortless morning meal prep.

💡 Macro Tweaks & Meal Prep Ideas

Lower the Fat: Swap 93/7 ground turkey for 99% extra-lean ground turkey breast and cut avocado oil down to 10g to knock off nearly 8g of fat per serving.
Lower the Calories: Swap the light mayo in the dipping sauce for non-fat plain Greek yogurt to boost protein while shaving off extra fat calories.
Crispy Reheating: Store individually wrapped in foil. Reheat in an air fryer at 375°F for 4–5 minutes to bring back the crispiness without getting soggy.
