Pour in eggs. As eggs begin to set, GENTLY PULL the eggs across the pan with an inverted turner, forming large soft curds.

Spoon eggs on top of bacon, dividing evenly.
Fold tortillas over filling to cover, pressing gently.
Clean skillet.
Coat with cooking spray; heat over medium-low heat until hot.
