- 4 leaves Fresh Basil Leaves (torn roughly)
- 4 halves Cherry Tomato (sliced in half)

Instructions
Prepare Fresh Ingredients
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half, grate the Parmesan, and tear the basil leaves. Set everything aside within easy reach.
Time: PT2M
Warm the Tortilla
Place the tortilla in the dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until pliable. Transfer to a plate.
Time: PT1M
Temperature: Medium heat (≈350°F)
Beat the Eggs
In a small bowl, whisk the two eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper until just combined.
Time: PT1M
Cook Eggs in Pesto
Add the pesto to the skillet, spreading it evenly. Pour the whisked eggs over the pesto and let them set, gently stirring once to create soft curds.
Time: PT2M
Temperature: Medium heat (≈350°F)
Add Toppings
When the eggs are just set but still slightly runny, sprinkle the grated Parmesan, scatter the basil leaves, arrange the tomato halves, and dollop the softened cream cheese on top.
Time: PT1M
Fold the Wrap
Lay the warmed tortilla over the egg mixture, then using the spatula, carefully flip the whole thing so the tortilla folds around the filling, creating a sealed wrap.
Time: PT1M
Final Warm‑through
Cook the assembled wrap for another 30 seconds, pressing gently with the spatula, until the tortilla is lightly toasted and the cheese is fully melted.
Time: PT30S
Temperature: Medium heat (≈350°F)
Plate and Serve
Slide the wrap onto a plate, cut in half if desired, and enjoy immediately while the yolk is still runny.
