Ready Time

Yields
6 servings
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs, separated, 1 1/2 cups fresh spinach, chopped, 1/2 cup sliced red bell pepper, 1/2 cup sliced cucumber, 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, Salt and pepper to taste, 6 low-carb tortillas.
Instructions
Separate the eggs and whisk the egg whites in a medium-sized bowl until frothy. Set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced red bell pepper and cucumber. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until tender.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked spinach mixture, bell pepper and cucumber mixture, and crumbled feta cheese. Mix well to combine.
Add the whisked egg whites to the bowl and mix until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Season with Dijon mustard and a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Warm the low-carb tortillas by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 20-30 seconds.
Assemble the wraps by spooning about 1/2 cup of the egg white mixture onto the center of each tortilla and spreading evenly.
Fold the bottom half of the tortilla up, then fold in the sides and roll up the wrap tightly. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to assemble the remaining 5 wraps.
Notes
Don’t overbeat those egg whites, you want them to be frothy, not stiff peaks.
Fresh spinach really makes a difference here, so try to use it instead of frozen.
If you don’t have fresh, just thaw frozen and squeeze out as much water as possible.
Red bell pepper adds a sweet crunch, but you can sub in any other color bell pepper if you prefer.
Don’t skip seasoning the veggies with salt and pepper, it makes a big difference in flavor.
Feta cheese adds a nice tang, but you can omit it if you’re watching calories.
If you want to make these wraps ahead, assemble them without the tortilla and refrigerate or freeze until ready to assemble and serve.
Keep in mind that low-carb tortillas can be a bit more delicate than regular ones, so handle them gently when assembling the wraps.
These wraps are perfect for a quick breakfast or lunch on-the-go.
