Our star ingredients are ripe avocados that lend creaminess to the dish, while diced tomatoes add a burst of freshness.

To make our Morning Guac Glory, start by halving your avocados and scooping out their creamy flesh into a bowl. Mash them up to your desired consistency – some like it chunky, some like it smooth!

Once your eggs are perfectly scrambled, it’s time to assemble your Morning Guac Glory.
Lightly toast your whole wheat tortillas and spread half of the guacamole on each. Top each with half of the scrambled eggs and voila! Your guacamole and egg tortilla is ready to be served.
