2. Prepare egg mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons 2% reduced fat milk, salt to taste, and ground black pepper to taste until fully blended.
3. Cook eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the heated skillet and cover with a lid. Let the eggs cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, or until they are fully set and cooked through.

7. Roll and serve: Carefully roll the assembled ingredients into a burrito shape, transfer to a plate, add any additional desired toppings, and serve immediately while warm.
