Fresh veggies and hummus help make this breakfast wrap a perfect way to start your day in a healthy way.
Giada uses kale in place of the traditional spinach for an even healthier spin on the already-healthy breakfast wrap. The next time you reach for a bacon-and-egg breakfast biscuit, think about whipping up one of these wraps instead.
Ask any nutritionist and they will tell you that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and starting your day with a healthy breakfast is one of the best things you can do for your overall wellness. Since it’s the New Year and everyone is trying to get a little healthier, we recommend this delicious wrap from Giada de Laurentiis.
While most of this recipe is fairly straightforward, there is an art to making a properly poached egg. Giada’s “vortex” method is one of the handiest tips we have seen in a while for people who don’t have a secret tip of their own. Still, especially if you making this for the first time, it may benefit you to have one or two spare eggs handy on the off chance that your first poach doesn’t go well. Don’t feel discouraged, though, even we experts here had trouble our first few times.
Though they don’t get a lot of credit in the recipe, the real unspoken stars of this wrap are all the herbs, spices, and aromatics: there isn’t an overpowering flavor in kale or tomatoes, so the thyme, garlic, shallot, basil, and hummus all come together to create the flavor that drives this delicious dish. That being the case, this is not the recipe where you can skimp with dried herbs or trying to substitute onion for shallots. Do yourself and your taste buds the favor and follow this recipe to the letter!
