No Bake Nutella Balls (chocolate truffles)

Here’s a new favourite truffle I added to our Christmas cookie boxes this year. I’ll share with you how to make No Bake Nutella Balls covered in chocolate with a few sprinkles to make them look festive. These were so delicious. I had a hard time not eating all of them myself. You can crush the graham crackers yourself, but I just purchased a box of crumbs.

Egg Wraps for Breakfast

Here's an easy breakfast where you can cook the eggs in advance and then re-heat them at work the next day. I wrap the eggs up in a 9" whole wheat tortilla and put a little hot sauce or ketchup on it.

Since today is Saturday and I'm not in a rush to go anywhere, I decided to fancy my wrap up a bit. I added mushrooms, tomatoes and scallions. I'd have added my hot sauce but the kind I like is the little packets from Taco Bell, and my stash is in my drawer at work. 



The simple version that I take to work during the week.

Breakfast Egg Wraps
Makes 1 serving

Ingredients
  • 1 whole wheat tortilla
  • 1/2 cup liquid eggs (I used veggie)
  • 1 cup sliced cremini mushrooms
  • 1/4 cup diced fresh tomato
  • 1 scallion, chopped
  • salt, pepper and hot sauce to taste
Directions
  1. Fry your eggs in a nonstick pan sprayed with a little cooking spray. Medium heat is best. You can scramble them or keep them in the shape of an omelette.
  2. Place the eggs on the wrap. Then, spray the same pan with a little more cooking spray and fry the mushrooms until they're tender. About 5 minutes will do it. Add the mushrooms, tomato and scallion to the wrap. Top with salt, pepper and hot sauce if you like it.
  3. Good luck trying to roll this up!
