Spinach Egg Wrap with Spiced Squash
Ingredients
- 1 cup baby spinach plus extra for filling
- 4 large organic eggs
- 2 tsp Tbsp + 1avocado oil
- 1 small butternut squash peeled and diced
- 1 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp ground coriander
- 1 small shallot peeled and minced
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic peeled and minced
- 1 tsp dried or fresh chopped chives
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- To make spinach-egg wraps, in blender, place 1 cup spinach and 2 eggs and blend until completely smooth.
- In large skillet on medium heat, add 1 Tbsp avocado oil. Pour in half of spinach and egg mixture and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until bubbles form. Gently flip over, as you would a crepe, and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside to cool while preparing filling.
- For filling, in large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp avocado oil on medium-high heat. Add diced squash in single layer with cumin, coriander, and shallot. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until crispy, caramelized, and tender, about 5 to 10 minutes per side. Remove squash from pan and set aside.
- While pan is still hot, add remaining 1 tsp avocado oil, if needed, and remaining eggs; scramble for 3 to 4 minutes, or until desired doneness.
- For yogurt sauce, in small bowl, whisk turmeric, yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, and chives and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- To assemble wraps, top the spinach-egg crepe wraps with extra spinach, your scrambled eggs, caramelized butternut squash, and any optional toppings.
- Carefully roll up wraps, cut in half, and serve immediately with yogurt sauce.
