Step by step
0 / 4Here’s how.
An easier way today.
Cook peas and eggs alongside each other; warm tortillas just before filling.
What you can prepare ahead
Weigh ingredients and set the table. Cook eggs fresh and avoid keeping them warm for a long time.
Got interrupted? Tick off each step as you finish, so you can find your place again here.
When there is room for it today
Helping is welcome. Watching is too.
Your child can mash the cooled peas with a fork. Adults handle raw eggs, the pan and hot filling.
For your family table
Adapt for younger eaters.
Crush peas, keep wraps soft and cut into small pieces. From age 3; supervise eating and adapt to individual skills.

Nutrient knowledge
These notes refer to the ingredients in the base recipe. The amount on the plate depends on preparation, portion size and swaps. Variety across the week makes the difference.
Make it work for you.
Ordinary soft wheat tortillas also work. Leave out cream cheese if preferred; the filling will be less creamy.
Taking it slowly today?
Offer wrap, egg and peas separately. Rolling is an option, not a requirement.
Keeping it safely
Cool untouched leftovers promptly in shallow containers and refrigerate at 5°C or below within 2 hours. Eat within 24 hours; reheat once to at least 70°C throughout for 2 minutes. Do not return leftovers from used plates.
For younger eaters
Crush peas, keep wraps soft and cut into small pieces. From age 3; supervise eating and adapt to individual skills.
