Time 25m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 eggs
1 ½ teaspoons reduced-fat sour cream
¼ cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1 ½ teaspoons prepared pesto sauce
3 grape tomatoes, sliced
1 slice turkey bacon
½ ounce marinated artichoke hearts, drained and thinly sliced
1 10-inch flour tortilla
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Beat the eggs in a bowl with the sour cream until blended, and stir in the Cheddar cheese.
  • Spray a skillet with cooking spray, and cook and stir the onion and pesto sauce over medium heat until the onion is translucent, about 6 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, and pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook and stir the egg mixture until the eggs are cooked but not dry, about 3 minutes. Remove eggs from the skillet, and set aside.
  • Place the turkey bacon into the skillet, and fry, flipping once, until the bacon is thoroughly cooked and starting to crisp, about 3 minutes per side. When the bacon is cooked, place the artichokes into the skillet to heat for about 1 minute, and remove the bacon and artichokes from the pan.
  • Spray the skillet with cooking spray, and place the tortilla into the hot skillet. Heat the tortilla until warm and flexible, and remove to a plate.
  • Spoon the eggs, turkey bacon, and artichokes into the center of the tortilla, and season with salt and pepper. Fold the bottom 2 inches of the tortilla up to enclose the filling, and wrap tightly.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     breakfast, quick, main course

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 tablespoon butter
3 large eggs
Pinch of salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese (optional)
1 heaping tablespoon pesto, more to taste
3 tablespoons fresh ricotta cheese, broken up into clump

Steps:

  • Over medium-high heat, melt butter in a medium-size skillet, preferably well-seasoned cast iron or nonstick.
  • Beat eggs with salt, pepper and, if using, Parmesan cheese. Pour eggs into pan, swirl and turn heat to low. Using a heat-proof rubber spatula, stir eggs constantly until very loosely set and slightly runnier than you like them.
  • Remove pan from heat and drizzle pesto on eggs. Off heat, give eggs one more gentle stir -- enough to finish cooking them and to distribute pesto in dark green streaks. Scatter ricotta on eggs and drizzle with more pesto if desired. Serve at once.

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 whole wheat tortillas
1/2 cup pesto
2 carrots, sliced into thick sticks
2 persian cucumbers, sliced into thin sticks
1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin sticks

Steps:

  • 2. Layer carrots, cucumbers, and bell peppers on the edge of the tortilla that is closest to you.
  • 3. Wrap up the tortilla like a burrito and serve.

Tips:

  • To make the perfect omelet, whisk the eggs in a bowl with a fork until they are just combined. Do not overbeat the eggs, as this will make the omelet tough.
  • Use a nonstick skillet over medium heat to cook the omelet. This will prevent the eggs from sticking to the pan.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is set. Then, use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the omelet and tilt the pan so that the uncooked egg mixture flows to the bottom.
  • Continue to cook the omelet for another 2-3 minutes, or until it is cooked through.
  • Fill the omelet with your favorite fillings, such as cheese, vegetables, or meat. Then, fold the omelet in half and serve.
  • Serve the omelet immediately with your favorite sides, such as toast, fruit, or yogurt.
