Feta, Egg & Spinach Breakfast Taco

(2)

It doesn’t get easier than this healthy breakfast taco that’s ready in just five minutes. Kale or arugula will work just as well if you don’t have spinach on hand. If you want an over-hard egg instead, and notice the egg is browning too quickly, add a tablespoon or two of water to the pan to help steam the egg and set the yolk faster.

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon avocado oil or canola oil

  • 1 corn tortilla

  • 1 cup lightly packed baby spinach

  • 1 large egg

  • 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese

  • Hot sauce for garnish (optional)

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook tortilla, flipping once, until softened, about 1 minute total; transfer to a plate. Add spinach to the pan; cook, stirring, until just barely wilted, about 1 minute. Transfer to the tortilla. Sprinkle feta in an egg-sized circle in the pan, leaving an open spot in the center. Break egg into the feta. Cover and cook until the egg is done to your liking, about 2 minutes for over easy. Transfer to the spinach and drizzle with hot sauce, if desired.
