This simple two minute dish is easy to eat at any bariatric stage, contains high quality high protein, is low/no carb and TASTES LIKE LASAGNA! Do not be intimidated that we call it a crepe, its just an egg. Okay, so this is technically a Manicotti. Enjoy.

  • one large egg
  • a teaspoon of olive oil
  • 1/4 cup part skim ricotta

  • sea salt and black pepper

Instructions

  • Scramble an egg in a bowl with a teaspoon of water.
  • Pour the olive oil into a hot, 6-inch nonstick frying pan and add the egg.

  • Carefully lift the corner and flip.
  • Move to plate, smear ricotta in a thick line across center of crepe, sprinkle with parmesan and roll up.
