Spinach fetta cheese flat bread

I had such a taste for homemade flat bread! So here is what I came up with!

These are the ingredients for the topping:

Feta cheese
Red onion
Olive oil
Hummus
Fresh spinach



To make the dough, you will need:

  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 1/4-ounce packet active dry yeast 
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 
  • 2 1/4 cups flour 
  • 3/4 teaspoon fine salt

First mix 1 cup of warm water with sugar and yeast in a bowl. Let stand for about 5 minutes and then add olive oil, flour, and salt. Knead the mixture for a while, till you end up with a smooth dough (keep flouring it while you are kneading). Place the dough into an oiled bowl, cover, and let sit for about an hour, or until it rises. Stretch the dough onto an oiled cookie sheet.


Preheat the oven for 450 degrees. Spread the hummus all over the dough.


Cover that with pre-washed spinach, cut up red onion and feta cheese


Bake it for about 20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. 


Enjoy!

spinach turkey omelet

Here is the promised recipe for your delicious breakfast



2 tablespoons water
fresh spinach
2 eggs
garlic salt
1 tablespoons butter
cheddar cheese (grated)
turkey (lunch meat)


Wash spinach and drain in a colander.

Place it on the pen with 2 tablespoons water and cook, tossing until completely wilted.

Place it back into the colander and squeeze out as much water as possible.

Chop spinach and place it in a bowl along with eggs.







Sprinkle with garlic salt and whisk together.










Put butter on a pan and melt it. Place the egg mixture into the pen and spread all the way to the edges of the pan. Cook it until the mixture thickens. Using wooden spoon or spatula, push the edges toward the center so that any uncooked eggs flow underneath. Cook until the eggs set.

Place turkey and cheddar cheese on top of the egg mixture and fold omelet in half using your spatula. 

Serve immediately with side of your choice. I chose toast and kabanos (polish sausage - oh so good, and you can get it in any Polish grocery store).
