Omelet Roll-Up

Omelet roll-ups were my grandmother’s solution to a speedy morning meal before school and a childhood favorite of mine. She would reheat one of her homemade rotis or chapatis, make a flat layer of egg, then stack and roll them up together. Over the years I’ve reimagined the roll-ups into an even simpler breakfast. While my grandmother’s homemade rotis sadly aren’t available at Whole Foods or the like, I now use easy-to-obtain flour tortillas and warm them up in the same pan (and at the same time) that I cook the eggs for an even more streamlined process. American cheese has a special place in my heart, so it’s my choice here, but feel free to use any cheese that melts well.
