This simple, delicious Garlic Mushroom Omelette Wrap recipe is SUPER special. You see it’s the first of ten recipes I’ll be sharing with JamieOliver.com for Jamie’s Food Revolution campaign starting this Friday 20th May 2016.

A few months back I was one of ten lucky people, chosen worldwide to put my spin on ten of Jamie’s recipes that will save your life. The first is a Cheese Omelette and this is my spin… a Garlic Mushroom Omelette Wrap. It is a delicious, nutrient dense ‘anytime meal’ that my whole family adores and I hope you love it too!

Health benefits

Mushrooms are a wonderful source of antioxidants, fibre, vitamin D and a powerful immune boosting food. The garlic offers more immune support as does the protein from the cheese and egg. Spinach and thyme add a fresh touch along with extra vitamins and minerals. This is one healthy combo!

Ingredients

This wrap uses simple ingredients: butter or oil, mushrooms, garlic, fresh thyme, baby spinach, eggs, and cheddar cheese. A dash of sherry vinegar or a substitute adds a subtle tang.

How to make a Garlic Mushroom Omelette Wrap

This recipe serves 1 person, so multiply the ingredients to feed as many as you need. In a hot pan, melt butter or oil and sauté garlic, mushrooms, and thyme until golden. Add vinegar and spinach to wilt, then set aside. Beat the eggs, season, and pour them into the pan to form a thin omelette. Sprinkle with cheese, add the mushroom mix, and fold the omelette into a egg wrap.

Serving suggestions and how to store

Serve this wrap fresh from the pan or wrap it in foil for an easy, on-the-go meal. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge and gently reheated in a pan or microwave.

Vary this to suit your dietary needs

For a dairy-free option, skip the cheese, or use a dairy-free alternative. Swap cheddar with your favourite cheese, like feta, for a different flavour. To keep it gluten-free, ensure your vinegar is gluten-free.

Take a look at the variations (below the main recipe) for suggestions to alter the recipe to suit many specific dietary requirements.

Garlic Mushroom Omelette Wrap

My Garlic Mushroom Omelette Wrap is a delicious, nutrient dense dish that my whole family adores. It's great for brekkie or for a fast lunch or dinner. 

Prep Time10 minutes mins

Cook Time10 minutes mins

Total Time20 minutes mins

Course: Breakfast, Main Course

Servings: 1

Ingredients

• 20 g butter, ghee or olive oil
• 150 g mushrooms -any combination, I like Swiss Brown, shiitake and oyster, sliced or torn
• 1 clove/s garlic -finely chopped
• ½ tsp fresh thyme leaves
• ½ tsp sherry vinegar -can substitute red wine vinegar with a pinch of sweetener dissolved into it
• 10 g baby spinach (approx. 1 handful/s)
• 2 egg/s
• 10 g cheddar cheese

Instructions

• Heat a large non-stick or cast iron pan over a medium-high heat and add the butter, ghee or olive oil.
• Once it has melted add the garlic, mushrooms, thyme and a good pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Stir well so that the mushrooms are coated in the butter.
• Cook for 3-4 minutes stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms soften and brown.
• Add the vinegar and spinach and stir for 30 seconds to just wilt the spinach. Set aside.
• Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, season with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, then beat well with a fork until fully combined.
• Add a little more butter to the hot pan, then carefully pour in the eggs.
• Tilt the pan so that the egg thinly coats the base of the pan.
• Grate the cheese onto a board and sprinkle over the egg.
• Now add the mushrooms to the centre of the omelette wrap and fold in the edges to form a parcel.

Notes

Dairy-free

Just leave out the cheese. You can also swap the cheddar with goat or cows feta or any other cheese you like really.

Gluten-free

Ensure the vinegar you use is gluten-free.

Tips

You can wrap this in foil for a meal on the go. To make a thicker, more sturdy wrap, double the eggs.
