Questions I Often Get Asked About This Recipe

Q: How do you make carrot “bacon”?
A: To make carrot “bacon,” thinly slice the carrots into long strips (you can use a vegetable peeler or mandolin), toss them in olive oil, liquid smoke, maple syrup, and seasonings, and then bake them until they’re crispy. The result is a savory, crispy alternative to traditional bacon!
Q: Can I make the carrot “bacon” ahead of time?
A: Yes! You can make the carrot “bacon” ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just reheat it in the oven or microwave when you’re ready to assemble the wraps.
Q: Can I use tofu or tempeh instead of scrambled eggs?

What You Need to Make Carrot “Bacon” Breakfast Wraps

For the Carrot “Bacon”:
- 2 large carrots, peeled and thinly sliced into long strips
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon liquid smoke
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Wraps:
- 4 large flour tortillas (or gluten-free tortillas if needed)
- 4 large eggs (or scrambled tofu for a vegan version)
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (optional, use vegan cheese for plant-based)
- 1/4 cup fresh spinach (optional)
- 1/4 cup diced avocado (optional)
- Fresh salsa or hot sauce (optional, for serving)
How to Make Carrot “Bacon” Breakfast Wraps

1. Make the carrot “bacon”:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Using a vegetable peeler or mandolin, thinly slice the carrots into long strips. In a large bowl, toss the carrot strips with olive oil, maple syrup, liquid smoke, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread the carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they’re crispy and golden brown. Set aside.
2. Scramble the eggs:
While the carrot “bacon” is baking, scramble the eggs in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until they’re fully cooked and soft. For a vegan version, scramble tofu with a little turmeric, nutritional yeast, and black salt to mimic the flavor of eggs. Set aside.
3. Assemble the wraps:
Heat the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until they’re warm and pliable.
Lay each tortilla flat and spoon some scrambled eggs in the center. Top with carrot “bacon,” spinach, avocado, and cheese (if using). Add fresh salsa or hot sauce for an extra kick.
4. Wrap and serve:
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly, securing the filling inside. Serve immediately while the wrap is warm and the cheese (if using) is melted.
Tips

- For extra crunch: Toast the wrapped tortillas in a skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side to make them crispy.
- Add extra flavors: Add a sprinkle of nutritional yeast or a drizzle of tahini for extra flavor and creaminess.
- For a smoky twist: Add a pinch of smoked salt or chipotle powder to the scrambled eggs for a deeper smoky flavor.
