Instructions

Prep: Heat the avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Warm the small flour tortilla by placing it in the skillet and flipping once until both sides are heated through, about 1 minute total.
Vegetables: Add the baby spinach to the skillet and sauté briefly until just wilted, about 1 minute. Be careful not to overcook the spinach to preserve its bright flavor and texture. Transfer the wilted spinach onto the warmed tortilla.
Cheese & Egg: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese in a circle on top of the spinach, leaving a space in the center. Crack the fresh egg into the middle of the cheese circle to form a nest shape.
Finish: Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the egg white is set and the yolk reaches your desired consistency—about 2 minutes for over easy. Serve immediately with hot sauce if desired.

Notes

Use a non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and make cooking easier.
For a gluten-free version, substitute the flour tortilla with a corn tortilla or gluten-free wrap.
Adjust the egg cooking time to your preferred doneness (e.g., less time for runny yolk, longer for firm yolk).
Spinach can be substituted with kale or Swiss chard for variation.
Add fresh herbs like parsley or chives to enhance flavor.
