Ingredients
  

TORILLAS:

TOPPINGS:

  • 1/2 cup 95% lean ground beef browned
  • 4 large eggs fried
  • 1/2 medium sliced Avocado
  • 1/2 cup Salsa
  • 1 Green Onion sliced

Instructions
 

  • Place the separated egg whites (no yolks at all...or it won’t work) in a bowl and whip with a hand mixer or stand mixer until they are very stiff.
  • Slowly add in the unflavored protein powder and spices.
  • Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Fry tortilla dough one at a time until firm, but not crisp.
  • Remove onto paper towels to drain excess oil.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the ground beef and other desired topping.
  • When tortillas are done, fry eggs over easy in the skillet.
  • Place “tortillas” onto plates, and spread a layer of meat on them.
  • Top with your desired toppings. I love my chili, a fried egg, crumbled bacon, avocado and salsa.
