Egg white burrito with leek and roasted tomato


I got the kids off to school today and realized I hadn't had breakfast yet. As my mornings are usually crazy (like every other mom), I found myself with a quiet morning and decided to make a delicious breakfast.

I made a fried egg white, and added a spoonful of roasted leeks and tomato that I had leftover from earlier in the week. I then added a slice of proscuitto and a teaspoon of crumbled ricotta salada to the egg. If you've never eaten ricotta salada, it is delicious, hard and salty. Wrap the egg in a warm flour tortilla and enjoy.

I also made a roasted beet salad yesterday for lunch with toasted pine nuts, beets, ricotta salada, and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil.
