ingredients

  • 1 mini flour tortilla
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ cup shredded cheddar
  • 1 tsp unsalted butter
  • Salt and pepper
guacamole:
  • 1 small or ½ medium avocado
  • 2 Tbsp chopped tomato
  • 1 Tbsp pickled jalapeños
  • ½ tsp lime juice
  • Salt and pepper

directions

guacamole

Dice the tomato and coarsely chop the pickled jalapeños. In a bowl, smash the avocado with a fork until still chunky. Place the ingredients together and squeeze fresh lime juice over the top. Season with salt and pepper and mix to combine.

egg & cheese

Beat the egg together with salt and pepper until light and frothy. In a nonstick pan, melt butter over medium heat. Once the butter begins to foam, pour the egg mixture into the pan.

Use a spatula to stir until soft curds form. When the bottom is set but the top is still wet, sprinkle cheese on top. As soon as the cheese begins to melt, turn off the heat.

assembly

Warm up the tortilla in the pan on both sides until just slightly hot. Remove from the pan and lay on a plate. Place the egg and guacamole on the tortilla and fold in half or roll up like a burrito.
