Grab & Go Scrambled Egg Stuffed Pitas

Directions

1. Whisk eggs, salt and pepper in a large bowl.

2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet set over medium heat; add your choice of cooked vegetables and cook until warmed, about 1 minute. Add eggs and stir two or three times, cooking until eggs are just set, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, scatter cheese over the top, cover with lid or foil and let “steam.”

3. Stuff pita halves with lettuce. Divide egg mixture evenly and add to each pita. Garnish with sauce and turkey bacon, if using.

4. Note: The USDA recommends cooking eggs until the yolk and whites are firm.
