= Heart-Healthy Cajun Breakfast Wraps (Trucker Edition) =

This recipe is designed for long-haul drivers. It is low-cholesterol, high-protein, and specifically engineered to be reheated in a 12V portable heater without becoming soggy. The "Square Fold" design allows for one-handed, drip-free eating while driving.

== Custom Cajun Seasoning Mix (Salt-Free) ==
''Make this in bulk and store in a small jar. Use 2-3 tablespoons per pound of meat.''

* '''2 tbsp''' Smoked Paprika (provides the "meaty" flavor)
* '''1 tbsp''' Garlic Powder
* '''1 tbsp''' Onion Powder
* '''1 tsp''' Dried Thyme
* '''1 tsp''' Dried Oregano
* '''1 tsp''' Cayenne Pepper (adjust for heat)
* '''1 tsp''' Black Pepper
* '''1/2 tsp''' White Pepper

== Ingredients ==
* '''Protein:''' 1 lb Ground Turkey (93% or 99% Lean)
* '''Egg Base:''' 1 carton Liquid Egg Whites
* '''Wraps:''' Large Whole Wheat Tortillas (High Fiber)
* '''Moisture Barrier:''' Green Cabbage leaves (washed and patted completely dry)
* '''Binder:''' Hummus or Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
* '''Optional:''' Finely diced celery and green bell peppers (The "Holy Trinity")

== Preparation (At Home) ==
# '''Brown the Meat:''' Sauté the ground turkey with 2-3 tbsp of the Cajun Seasoning Mix. Use a spatula to break the meat into very small crumbles. Cook until the moisture is gone and the edges are slightly crisp.
# '''Dry-Scramble Eggs:''' Cook the egg whites in a non-stick skillet. Cook them "hard" (firm) so they do not release water later.
# '''Cooling:''' IMPORTANT. Let all cooked ingredients cool completely before assembly to prevent condensation inside the wrap.

== Assembly (The "Drip-Proof" Square Fold) ==
# Lay the tortilla flat. 
# Place a dry '''cabbage leaf''' in the center as a heat/moisture shield.
# Spread a thin layer of hummus or yogurt on the leaf (acts as "glue").
# Layer the Cajun turkey crumbles and egg whites in the center.
# '''The Fold:''' Fold the left and right sides toward the center, then fold the top and bottom over them to create a sealed square packet.
# Press the wrap in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side to "lock" the seams.

== Reheating Instructions (In the Semi) ==
* '''Storage:''' Keep wraps in the truck refrigerator for up to 5 days.
* '''Setup:''' Wrap the unit loosely in a paper towel, then in a foil "envelope" (leave a small gap for steam to vent).
* '''Heating:''' Place in 12V portable heater (RoadPro/HotLogic) for '''45–60 minutes'''.
* '''Safety:''' The square fold ensures the wrap can be held in one hand without leaking on the driver or the equipment.
