Hi, friends! Sorry that it’s been a while since my last post. I just started working as a dietetic intern, and it takes up quite a bit of my time! Luckily, as a dietetic intern, I get to focus on food during the day- so this next recipe is actually an invention from work that happens to be delicious and super wicked easy to make!
This recipe is for egg and guacamole pinwheels, which are wonderful for breakfast because they’re packed with protein, low in carbs, and contain healthy fats. They’re also great for party platters, and happen to go hand in hand with a great salsa. What could be better???
Ingredients:
- 1 egg, scrambled
- 3 tbsp guacamole (I’ll include the recipe for my guacamole at the bottom of this post)
- 1 soft taco tortilla (you can use a regular white tortilla, or you can use OlĂ© Xtreme Wellness, Joseph’s, or FlatOut brands for higher fiber/protein and lower carb options)
Spread the guacamole in a thin layer over the tortilla. Then, arrange the scrambled egg in a line along the side of the tortilla.
Roll the edge of the tortilla nearest the egg up and over the egg, and then continue rolling. This will ensure that the egg is in the center of the wrap, and that the guacamole holds the tortilla roll together (kind of like sushi- you have your protein in the middle, and then the stuff on the outside holds it all together).
Gently cut the roll into 1-inch pieces using a serrated knife. You can either eat them now, or arrange the pieces on a plate with some salsa and serve them at a party!
And there you have it! Super easy and absolutely delicious! Now, for those who want to make their own guacamole and don’t have a great recipe…
Ruth’s Guacamole:
- 1 avocado, mashed
- 1 tsp lime juice
- Garlic salt to taste
- Chili powder to taste
- Cracked black pepper to taste
Mix all of the ingredients together, and you have a great guacamole! Happy cooking!
They would be really pretty if you added some black beans and red salsa!
