This breakfast bundle combines spinach and feta in a morning wrap that'll make you forget about expensive café options. Light, puffy egg whites form a cloud-like base that perfectly holds the zingy feta, nutrient-packed spinach, and sweet sun-dried tomatoes. Everything's tucked inside a toasty whole wheat tortilla that gets wonderfully crisp, giving you protein and amazing taste in each mouthful.

I first tried making these when I checked my bank account and saw how much I was throwing away on breakfast stops. They quickly became the go-to morning choice at our house, with everyone asking for them before school and work. The flavors remind me of Greek spinach pie but way easier to eat on the go.

Stellar Ingredients

  • Whole wheat wrap: Works as your sturdy base, adding fiber and good-for-you stuff while keeping everything neatly contained.
  • Egg whites: Make a soft protein cushion without the cholesterol, cooking up into a gentle cloud.
  • Baby spinach: Gives you loads of vitamins while adding a subtle earthy kick that works beautifully with everything else.
  • Crumbled feta cheese: Adds that sharp, salty pop that turns this from basic to brilliant with real Mediterranean vibes.
  • Sun dried tomatoes: Bring a sweet, intense flavor punch that ties all the other tastes together.
  • Olive oil: Gets everything cooked just right and adds a hint of richness to your finished wrap.

Building Your Breakfast Wonder

Cook The Egg Base:
Heat your olive oil in a good non stick pan over medium until it starts to shimmer. Pour in your egg whites and add a tiny bit of salt and pepper. Let them sit until they start firming around the edges. With a flexible spatula, pick up the sides while tipping the pan so the runny parts flow underneath. When they're almost set, gently fold them into a loose flat shape that'll fit your wrap perfectly.
Soften The Spinach:
Take out your eggs and set them aside. Drop your fresh spinach right into the same warm pan. Keep stirring as it shrinks down like crazy. You'll only need about a minute until it turns bright green and soft. Take it off the heat fast so it doesn't get mushy or brown.
Put It Together:
Spread your tortilla on a flat surface. Put your egg white creation in the middle, leaving enough tortilla showing around the sides. Spread your cooked spinach across the eggs. Scatter plenty of feta all over the spinach. Drop in bits of sun dried tomato all around so you'll get some in every bite.
Roll It Up:
Take the bottom edge and pull it up over about a third of your fillings. Fold in both sides toward the middle like you're making an envelope. Keep rolling from the bottom until you've got everything tucked in tight. A snug roll keeps all the good stuff from falling out while you eat.
Toast It Golden:
Get a clean pan warm over medium heat. Place your wrap with the seam facing down first to seal it shut. Let it cook about 2 minutes until it's golden and a bit crunchy. Flip it carefully and brown the other side for 2 more minutes. This final step melts the cheese inside and gives you that perfect mix of crispy outside and soft inside.

For me, the sun dried tomatoes really make this wrap stand out. They have this amazing concentrated sweetness that takes me back to summer gardens at their best. My husband usually skips breakfast altogether but actually asks for these wraps regularly, which tells you everything about how good they are, even for people who don't usually bother with morning meals.

Brilliant Breakfast Solutions

This wrap can totally change your mornings without any fancy cooking tricks. The combo of protein from the eggs and feta plus fiber from the whole wheat wrap gives you steady energy without making you feel stuffed. Making a bunch at once makes weekday mornings so much easier. Try cooking up a batch on Sunday so you can grab them quickly all week long.

Mix It Up Your Way

The basic wrap works great as is, but you can switch things up based on what you like or need. If you're vegetarian, this recipe already works for you, and vegans can swap in crumbled tofu and plant-based feta. If you're watching carbs, try one of those special low-carb wraps instead. Adding fresh herbs like basil or dill can bring in new flavors when you want something different. You might even try tossing in some olives or roasted red peppers for more Mediterranean flair.

Keeping Them Fresh

Let your wraps cool down completely before you put them away to avoid getting soggy spots. Keep them in the fridge wrapped tightly in plastic or reusable food wraps and they'll stay fresh for about five days. Want to make a bigger batch? Just wrap each cool sandwich in foil before putting them in freezer containers. Don't forget to mark the date so you'll know they're good for two months frozen. Thaw overnight in your fridge for the best results when warming them up.

Ingredients

→ Wrap Add-Ins

01 1 10-inch tortilla (use gluten-free if preferred)
02 2 extra-large egg whites
03 1/2 cup fresh spinach or thawed frozen
04 4 sun-dried tomatoes, diced
05 2 tablespoons of feta cheese crumbles
06 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
07 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

Step 01

Warm up a non-stick pan and coat it lightly with oil or spray. Once hot, season the egg whites with some salt and pepper, then pour them in. Flip them gently after they firm up, cooking through on both sides. Take them out and place aside.

Step 02

Toss the spinach into the already-heated pan, cover, and let it steam until it wilts—usually a minute or two.

Step 03

Lay the tortilla flat and pile the cooked egg whites in the center. Scatter on the wilted spinach, sprinkle the diced sun-dried tomatoes on top, and finish with a handful of feta crumbs. Roll it tight.

Step 04

Put the wrap back on the pan, turning it to get a nice toast all over. Or, pop it in a panini press till it’s golden brown and warmed through.
