Mediterranean-inspired Egg Wrap
- Serves: 2
- Prep: 5 mins
- Cook: 5 mins
Why it works: this is a perfectly balanced meal with healthy fats, protein, fibre and slow-release carbohydrates from the olive oil, hummus, eggs and wholemeal wraps.
Ingredients
- 4 large British Lion eggs
- Pinch of dried oregano (optional)
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 wholemeal wraps or pittas, warmed
- 3–4 tbsp hummus
- 2 handfuls of fully prepared rocket
- 1 ripe tomato, sliced
- 30g feta, crumbled (optional, but recommended)
- Juice of 1 lemon, to taste (optional)
- About 1 tsp olive oil, for cooking
Method
- Heat the oil in a medium-sized non-stick frying pan over a medium heat.
- Meanwhile, in a bowl, using a fork, whisk together the eggs, a pinch of oregano (if using) and pepper until foamy.
- Pour the egg mixture into the pan and, using a spatula, stir continuously to scramble until cooked to your liking. Remove from the heat.
- Put the wraps onto two plates and spread with hummus. Spoon over the scrambled eggs before topping with rocket, tomato and feta (if using). Squeeze over lemon juice, to taste (if you like).
- Fold (if using a wrap) and serve straight away.
Cooks tips
“These vibrant wraps are perfect for a speedy lunch when you are short on time but still want something nutritious and delicious.” Nichola Ludlam-Raine, Registered Dietitian
Tip: You can swap the dried oregano for other dried herbs like Herbes de Provence or thyme. Alternatively, scatter with freshly chopped parsley or coriander just before serving.
