Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Whole wheat tortillas
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 2 cups Baby spinach
- 1 cup Feta cheese
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Avocado
Instructions
Dice the red bell pepper and red onion, mince the garlic, and halve the cherry tomatoes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and red onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, then add cherry tomatoes and baby spinach. Stir and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the spinach is wilted and the tomatoes are slightly softened. Remove from pan and set aside.
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, and then season with salt and black pepper.
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and pour in the beaten eggs. Stir gently over medium heat until the eggs are scrambled and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
Place one tortilla on a flat surface, evenly distribute a portion of the vegetable mixture and scrambled eggs onto the center of the tortilla.
Top with crumbled feta cheese and slices of avocado.
Fold the sides of the tortilla towards the center, then roll from the bottom to form a burrito. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Serve warm and enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Breakfast Burritos!
