Tortilla Egg Wrap

 

This is our family’s favorite when we are eating on the run and we want eggs. I don’t even pull out a cutting board to make it happen, just scissors, a skillet, a wooden spatula and a jar to shake up the egg.

Ingredients

  • 3 greens, such as the leaves of kale, collards, spinach, etc
  • 1 green onion, optional
  • 1 tablespoon butter, unsalted
  • 1 egg
  • 1 pinch salt
  • ¼ cup monterey jack , shredded, optional
  • 1 tortilla, whole wheat

Serving Size: 1 Person

Preparation Instructions

Wash and dry the greens and green onions. Place an 8-9 inch skillet over medium heat. Stack up the leaves and use kitchen shears or scissors to thinly slice strips of the leaves into the skillet. Use the scissors for the green onions as well, discarding the hairy tips. Toss periodically as the vegetables start to cook.

Add the butter to the veggies. Place the egg in a bowl or jar with the pinch of salt. Whisk or shake the jar until it is beaten up. Pour the eggs over the veggies. Lift the pan and tilt around until the egg is thinly and evenly distributed.

Sprinkle the cheese across the top. Shake the pan and lift the edges of the eggs up. As soon as it is loosened, place the tortilla on top.

Carefully, place a plate across the skillet with your hand on top. Lift the pan and plate together. Then flip the egg and tortilla onto the plate. Slide the tortilla back into the skillet to warm briefly for just another few seconds.

Slide back on to the plate. Roll up and cut into 2-3 inch slices to be shared as pinwheel bites or just enjoy the whole wrap yourself.
