Ingredients

• 2 pieces whole-grain tortillas
• 4 pieces large eggs
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 60 grams feta cheese, crumbled
• 100 grams spinach, fresh
• 150 grams cherry tomatoes, halved
• 0.25 cups red onion, thinly sliced
• 50 grams black olives, sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper until thoroughly mixed.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove spinach from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the same skillet. Add the sliced onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.

Step 4

Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet with the onions and gently scramble them. Stir frequently until the eggs are just set, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Remove the skillet from heat and gently fold in the sautéed spinach, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced black olives, and crumbled feta cheese.

Step 6

Warm the whole-grain tortillas on a skillet or in a microwave for a few seconds until soft and pliable.

Step 7

Divide the egg mixture evenly between the two tortillas.

Step 8

Sprinkle chopped fresh basil over the egg mixture on each tortilla.

Step 9

Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll up from the bottom, tucking in the edges to form a burrito.

Step 10

Cut in half if desired and serve warm. Enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Classic Breakfast Burrito!
