Eggs-cellent!

There are some nights when I am running behind and need a quick, easy dinner. Eggs always seem to be the solution!

They are a perfect, affordable, quality source of protein and I never hear complaints from the family...

Please spend the extra dollar or two on organic eggs (or simply befriend someone with chickens). The living conditions, along with the genetically modified feed for non-organic chickens is an absolute turnoff and will not deliver the same health benefits as the organic.

Delicious & Easy Omelette Wrap

2 large (preferably organic) eggs

a tiny pinch of sea salt

2 tablespoons of chopped chives

1tbsp. pesto

A bit of goat cheese, feta or ricotta cheese

a small handful of mixed salad greens

Use a fork to beat the eggs and salt in a small bowl. Beat well, until the eggs are mostly uniform in color.

In your largest non-stick skillet over medium heat, pour the egg mixture and give it a good swirl so that they spread out thinly across the entire pan. Alternately, you can use a crepe pan or crepe maker - this works beautifully as well. Sprinkle the eggs with some of the chives and let them set, this happens quickly depending on the heat of your pan - 15 seconds to one minute. Run a spatula underneath the omelette and slide it out of the pan (flat) onto a large cutting board. Spread the pesto across the surface of the omelette and then sprinkle with the cheese and salad greens. Starting with one end, roll the omelette away from you. Cut in half on a deep diagonal. Season with a bit more salt if needed and serve garnished with a few chopped chives.

This omelette is delicious served with roasted potatoes and marinated tomato slices for a quick and easy dinner.
