Breakfast / Brinner Pitas With A Bit Of A Med Twist

September 6, 2013

Everybody knows I love *frambled* eggs – my take on scrambled OK. I chow two eggs a day & when I’m on a serious health kick I sometimes go straight for egg whites. But whether you choose to yolk it or not – eggs, *frambled* to be exact are a ‘Winner Winner Chicken Dinner’ type of meal. I’m not a huge breakfast fan, I find my egg eating takes place in the afternoons or evenings. So despite this tasty pita having the word Breakfast in the title, I usually chow this for Brinner -yes, I said Brinner – the breakfast for dinner meal… A dollop of creamy humus quickly turns boring old eggs into something rather exciting, quick & easy. So whether you nibble on this for breakfast, brunch or brinner just be sure to add masses of humus & a spritz or two of fresh lime to the mix!
