INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup feta cheese crumbled
1 large egg
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Pinch of red pepper flakes
1 corn tortilla grain-free tortilla, or flour tortilla
1/2 avocado
1/4 cup micro greens or arugula
1 teaspoon olive oil

INSTRUCTIONS

Spray a medium skillet with nonstick spray or rub it down with an oiled paper towel. Heat it over medium high heat. Once it’s hot, sprinkle the crumbled feta in the shape of a ring (like a donut). Cook for 1-2 minutes to melt slightly.
Crack an egg in the center of the feta ring and sprinkle with black pepper flakes and red pepper. No need to add salt because the feta is salty. Cook the egg uncovered for 3-5 minutes, until the egg whites are set.
While it’s cooking, heat the tortilla over the open flame of a gas range for 15-20 seconds on each side, using tongs to flip it. You could also broil them in the oven.
Spread avocado onto the tortilla. Toss the greens with a drizzle of olive oil and place it on top of the avocado.
Remove the egg from the heat and use a thin spatula, like a fish spatula, to remove the feta egg from the pan. Place on top of the prepared tortilla and enjoy hot.
