Description

This Mediterranean Egg Wrap is a mix between an omelet and a breakfast burrito but it is so much better than both of those! Plus, it packs in 31 grams of protein per serving!

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 Tbsp Greek Yogurt
  • 2 Tbsp Unsweetened Soy Milk
  • 2 tsp Olive Oil
  • 3 Tbsp Red Bell Pepper, diced
  • 1 oz Baby Bella Mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup Raw Baby Spinach
  • 3/4 oz Cheddar Cheese, grated
  • 1 Whole Wheat Tortilla

Instructions

  1. Heat a nonstick skillet to medium heat. Add 2 tsp olive oil.
  2. When the pan is heated up, add the peppers and mushrooms and sautee for 1-2 minutes until the mushrooms are nicely browned.
  3. Next add a handful of spinach and sautee for 1 minute.
  4. While the spinach and veggies cook, whisk up the eggs, milk, Greek Yogurt and salt and pepper in a bowl.
  5. Then, pour the egg into the pan, over top of the veggies. Give the pan a little shake to spread the eggs out evenly.
  6. Place the tortilla on top of the egg mixture and allow to cook for 4-5 minutes.
  7. After 5 minutes, run your spatula around the outside edge of the egg to make sure it will easily release and that it is cooked through.
  8. Using a large spatula, flip the mixture over so that the tortilla is now on the bottom. Add the grated cheese and allow the tortilla to brown for 1 minute.
  9. Finally, roll or fold the tortilla egg up. I find that folding into thirds like a letter works well. Then, give the roll up a little press with your spatula to fully crisp the bottom.
  10. Now, slide it onto a plate, cut in half on a diagonal and dig in!

Description

Simple, fast and delicious! Creamy melted zucchini pasta cooks up in no time and delivers a meal that the entire family will enjoy.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 Medium Zucchini
  • 1 lb Spaghetti Pasta (Look for Bronze, Die-Cut Pasta)
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  • 3 Garlic Cloves, Whole
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese, Grated
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Zest
  • 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Take care to not over cook, we want al dente pasta here! But, DO NOT DRAIN THE PASTA WATER! We will use some of the pasta water for our sauce.
  2. While the pasta cooks, work on the sauce and zucchini.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and allow to heat up for 1 minute, then add the whole garlic cloves and cook for 4-5 minutes to infuse the oil with the garlic.
  4. While the garlic cooks, grate the zucchini. Set a clean dish towel out on a counter or cutting board. Over top the towel, grate the zucchini using a box grater. Gather the towel by the ends and then, over the sink or a bowl, squeeze the liquid out of the shredded zucchini.
  5. Slowly, in batches, add the shredded zucchini to the olive oil skillet. (Take care and go slow because the oil is hot!) Cook the zucchini in the oil for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon or spatula. The zucchini will start to break down and “melt” into the oil, this is when it is done. Remove the garlic cloves from the zucchini, discard.
  6. Using tongs, remove the pasta from the pot directly into the skillet with the zucchini. Add the Parmesan cheese and lemon zest, and using the tongs, stir together the pasta, cheese, zest and zucchini. The cheese will melt into the mixture, creating the sauce for this dish. If the pasta seems dry, add a few tablespoons of pasta water to loosen up the pasta and create more of a sauce.
  7. Add salt and pepper and adjust seasonings based on your preference. Serve hot and enjoy!

Simple sauteed Bok Choy is a fast and flavorful side dish for any dinner!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs Bok Choy (One Large Bunch or Two Medium Bunches)
  • 1 tsp Sesame Oil
  • 1 Garlic Clove, minced
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce

Instructions

  1. Trim the root end off of your bok choy and discard. Then fan the leaves open, rinse off any dirt and shake off excess water.
  2. Place the rinsed bok choy onto a cutting board. Line the bok choy up horizontally and with a sharp knife, starting with the white part and moving to the leafy green, chop into roughly 1-inch pieces.
  3. Heat a medium sized skillet, wok or cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the sesame oil and allow to heat up for 30 seconds.
  4. When the oil is heated, add the white parts of the bok choy only! (This is key so that the greens do not wilt while the white part cooks!) Allow to cook for 1 minute.
  5. Next, add the rest of the boy choy, (the greens!) and cook for another 2 minutes. Then turn the heat down to medium low and add the garlic and soy sauce. Cook for an additional minute until the garlic just softens. Serve immediately.
