Looking for a quick, delicious, and protein-packed meal? These Egg and Spinach Wraps are a fantastic choice to fuel your body and satisfy your taste buds. They are super easy to make and perfect for breakfast, lunch, or even a light dinner.

Ingredients Needed

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup milk (any kind)
  • 2 tablespoons shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella work well)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 whole wheat tortillas or wraps
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil or butter

Step By Step Making

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  2. Stir in the chopped spinach and shredded cheese into the egg mixture.
  3. Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Pour half of the egg mixture into the skillet to make one large, thin omelet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, until set and lightly golden.
  5. Repeat step 4 with the remaining egg mixture to make a second omelet.
  6. Once the omelets are cooked, place one whole wheat tortilla on a clean surface.
  7. Carefully place one cooked omelet onto the tortilla, leaving a small border.
  8. Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then tightly roll it up from the bottom to create a wrap.
  9. Repeat steps 7 and 8 with the second tortilla and omelet.
  10. Slice the wraps in half if desired and serve immediately.
