Description
A quick recipe for low-calorie wraps made primarily from egg whites.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large egg whites
- 1 tablespoon water
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- Filling ingredients of your choice (e.g., spinach, turkey slices, low-fat cheese)
Instructions
- Whisk the egg whites, water, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until slightly frothy.
- Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Pour half of the egg white mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread it into a thin, even circle, similar to a crepe.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges set and the top is mostly firm.
- Carefully flip the egg white circle and cook for another minute.
- Slide the cooked wrap onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining mixture to make a second wrap.
- Place your desired fillings onto the center of each wrap.
- Fold the sides over the filling to create a closed wrap. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For easier handling, cook the egg whites slightly thicker, like a thin omelet, rather than paper-thin.
- You can add a dash of hot sauce to the egg white mixture for flavor.
- Use a non-stick pan to prevent sticking and tearing.
