Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • Egg whites (from a carton or separated from whole eggs)
  • Cornstarch or arrowroot (for flexibility and structure)
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Garlic powder (optional)
  • Onion powder (optional)
  • Nutrition yeast or grated Parmesan (optional for savory depth)
  • Olive oil spray or avocado oil (for the pan)
  • Fresh herbs like chives or parsley (optional)
  • Filling ideas: baby spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, avocado, turkey slices, grilled chicken, smoked salmon, hummus, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, salsa

Method
 

  1. Make the batter: In a bowl, whisk 1 cup liquid egg whites with 1 tablespoon cornstarch or arrowroot until smooth. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, a pinch of black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon each of garlic and onion powder if using. The mixture should look like thin pancake batter.
  2. Heat the pan: Place a nonstick 8- to 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat with olive oil spray. Let it warm for 1–2 minutes.
  3. Pour and swirl: Add about 1/4 cup of the egg white batter to the center. Immediately tilt and swirl the pan so the mixture spreads into a thin, even layer.
  4. Cook gently: Let it cook for 45–75 seconds until the edges look set and lift easily with a spatula. The surface should lose its sheen but not brown deeply.
  5. Flip carefully: Use a thin spatula to loosen the edges, then flip. Cook the second side for 15–30 seconds. Avoid overcooking so the wrap stays pliable.
  6. Transfer and repeat: Slide the wrap onto a plate or cooling rack. Re-spray the pan lightly and repeat with remaining batter. You should get 5–6 wraps.
  7. Fill and roll: Add your favorite fillings: a layer of hummus and spinach, turkey and tomato, or cottage cheese with herbs. Roll tightly like a burrito or fold like a taco.
  8. For meal prep: Let wraps cool completely before stacking with parchment between each. Store based on the instructions below.
