Heaven in Foil



i feel bad about the botched dinner so i will also post a super delicious treat. this little delicacy can be for breakfast, lunch, dinner or even to go. it's also perfect because you can add just about anything you want to it and change it up. here is what i came up with the other night...

egg white scramble with leftover guac (from the Less is More Guac i had made earlier in the week)

you will need the following:

pam cooking spray
tortilla
egg whites - i buy the egg whites that are in the cartons. makes life much easier.
shredded mexican cheese
hot sauce - any kind you like. today i got to use a new bottle of Texas Pete
guac - optional
aluminum foil

here is what you do:

get a sauté frying pan and turn the stove on to medium heat. spray a little pam cooking spray to help grease up the pan so the eggs won't stick. let that heat up for a minute or so then pour in your egg whites. i usually pour in enough so that its a thin layer coving the bottom of the pan. these eggs will heat up quickly so don't wander away.

once the eggs are scrambled turn off the heat an add the shredded mexican cheese.

lay the square of foil out and put the tortilla on top of that. then carefully add the scrambled eggs to the center of the tortilla.

add a little guac on top and hot sauce.

now roll up the tortilla - fold the sides in then start rolling it like a burrito.

finally, secure the burrito in the foil. this will be a huge step because the foil will catch anything that may drip, fall or slide from the wrap. also makes clean up a snap.
