Craving a wrap but trying to cut back on carbs? Say hello to Low-Carb Wraps with Egg White Tortillas. These light, protein-packed tortillas make the perfect base for your favorite fillings without the heaviness of traditional flour wraps. Whether you’re following keto, low-carb, or just aiming for healthier choices, this recipe is versatile, simple, and absolutely delicious.
Why Egg White Tortillas?
Traditional tortillas are loaded with refined carbs that can spike blood sugar and leave you feeling sluggish. Egg whites, on the other hand, are low in calories, naturally fat-free, and rich in protein. Turning them into thin, crepe-like tortillas gives you a flexible base for sandwiches, breakfast wraps, or even taco night—without the guilt.
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Egg Whites: About ½ cup per tortilla (fresh or from a carton).
- Cooking Spray or Olive Oil: To prevent sticking.
- Seasonings (Optional): Salt, pepper, garlic powder, or Italian herbs for added flavor.
- Fillings of Your Choice: Think grilled chicken, turkey, avocado, spinach, roasted veggies, hummus, or cheese.
How to Make Egg White Tortillas
- Heat a Nonstick Pan: Lightly coat with cooking spray or a touch of olive oil.
- Pour Egg Whites: Add about ½ cup to the pan, swirling to coat the surface in a thin layer.
- Cook Gently: Let cook for 1–2 minutes until set, then carefully flip. Cook another 30–60 seconds.
- Cool and Fill: Allow to cool slightly, then add your favorite fillings and roll it up.
👉 Pro Tip: Make several tortillas ahead of time and store them in the fridge for quick grab-and-go meals during the week.
