- Make-ahead friendly: Cools and reheats like a dream—ideal for meal prep breakfast wraps.
- Light but satisfying: Egg whites keep it a low calorie breakfast wrap without sacrificing protein.
The Ingredients You’ll Need
Short list, big flavor. Here’s what goes into this spinach feta egg white wrap:
- Whole-wheat tortillas (8–9 in / 20–23 cm): Soft and sturdy for clean folds.
- Sun-dried tomatoes in oil: Drain, then chop for sweet-savory pops in every bite.
- Egg whites (from 6 eggs or carton): Classic to the Starbucks spinach feta egg white wrap recipe profile.
- Baby spinach, garlic, lemon zest + juice, scallions (optional): Bright, layered flavor.
- Feta: Creamy, salty contrast.
- Seasonings: Oregano, basil, Aleppo (or mild chili), kosher salt, black pepper.
- A splash of water or low-sodium veg broth: Helps steam-wilt the greens.
Pro tip: Use oil from the tomato jar to sauté—the infused flavor is gold.
The Secrets to Success
- Toast first, fold later: Warm tortillas are flexible and won’t crack.
- Build in circles: Spread the spinach mixture into even rounds so the eggs set neatly.
- Finish on a hot sheet pan: Seals seams and gives that café-style crisp base.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat & Prep Tortillas
Heat oven to 400°F (205°C) with a parchment-lined sheet pan inside. On a dry griddle over medium, toast tortillas 45–60 seconds per side until pliable and lightly spotted. Keep covered. - Wilt the Greens
Add 2 tbsp tomato-oil to the pan. Pile in spinach with ¼ cup water/broth. Cook 4–5 minutes until collapsed and glossy; most liquid should evaporate. - Layer the Flavor
Stir in garlic, lemon zest, and scallions; cook 2 minutes. Season with oregano, basil, Aleppo, salt, and pepper; add lemon juice. Divide into three mounds about 7–8 in (18–20 cm) wide. - Add the Eggs
Whisk egg whites (plus optional whole egg). Pour a thin layer over each mound so it reaches the edges. Cook 5–6 minutes on medium-low until opaque and edges lift. Centers should feel set or read 160°F (71°C). - Flip with Feta
Sprinkle feta over the eggs. Lay a tortilla on each round; press 10–15 seconds. Invert onto the hot sheet pan so tortillas face down, filling up. - Fold & Seal
Bake 1 minute to re-soften. Fold bottom third up, sides in to form an open-ended envelope. Press seam-side down on the pan 45–60 seconds to secure. - Crisp & Rest
Bake 3–4 minutes more at 400°F (205°C) until lightly crisp underneath. Rest 3 minutes; serve warm.
Expert Tips & Smart Swaps
- Cheese options: Goat cheese or part-skim mozzarella stand in for feta.
- Greens: Mix in a handful of baby arugula for peppery bite.
- Spice route: No Aleppo? Use mild chili flakes or a pinch of smoked paprika.
- Storage: Cool completely, wrap in foil, refrigerate up to 4 days. Reheat in a toaster oven at 350°F / 175°C for 6–8 minutes.
Serving Suggestions
- Pair with a citrusy arugula side salad.
- Sip alongside a cold brew or lemon-mint iced tea.
- Pack for a desk-friendly lunch—this spinach feta tortilla wrap travels well.

Sun-Dried Tomato, Spinach & Feta Breakfast Wraps
Equipment
- Large flat griddle/comal (12 in / 30 cm) or wide nonstick sauté pan
- rimmed sheet pan + parchment
- Medium mixing bowl
- Silicone Spatula
- Tongs
- microplane/zester
- instant-read thermometer (helpful)
Ingredients
Pantry
- 3 whole-wheat tortillas 8–9 in / 20–23 cm
- 2 tbsp oil from the sun-dried tomato jar
- ⅔ cup about 100 g sun-dried tomatoes in oil, finely chopped, drained
Proteins
- 6 large egg whites from 6 eggs, ~¾ cup / 180 ml carton whites
- Optional: 1 whole egg lightly beaten
Produce
- About 6 oz / 170 g baby spinach roughly chopped (about 6 packed cups)
- 2 small garlic cloves minced
- Zest from ½ lemon
- 2 scallions thinly sliced (light greens only; optional)
Liquids
- ¼ cup 60 ml water or low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
Seasonings
- ¾ tsp dried oregano
- ¾ tsp dried basil
- ¼ tsp Aleppo pepper or mild chili flakes
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Garnish
- ¾ cup about 90 g feta, crumbled
- Lemon wedges for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Oven Warm-Up & Tortilla Toast : Heat oven to 400°F (205°C) with a parchment-lined sheet pan inside. On a dry griddle over medium, toast tortillas 45–60 seconds per side until pliable with light golden spots. Stack and cover with a towel.
- Steam-Wilt the Greens : Add the tomato oil to the griddle/pan. Add spinach and ¼ cup water/broth; cook 4–5 minutes, stirring, until glossy and collapsed and most liquid has evaporated. (The splash of liquid softens the greens and prevents sticking.)
- Flavor Build : Stir in garlic, lemon zest, and scallions; cook 2 minutes until fragrant. Season with oregano, basil, Aleppo, salt, and pepper. Stir in lemon juice. Spread the mixture into three neat mounds about 7–8 in (18–20 cm) across.
- Blanket with Whites : Whisk egg whites (and the optional whole egg). Pour a thin layer over each spinach mound so the eggs reach the edges. Cook over medium-low 5–6 minutes until opaque and the edges lift easily; centers should read 160°F (71°C) or feel set.
- Sheet-Pan Flip Assist : Scatter feta over the egg rounds. Lay one tortilla on each round and press 10–15 seconds. Invert each onto the hot sheet pan so tortillas face down, filling up.
- Fold & Seal : Return to the oven 1 minute to re-soften tortillas. Fold the bottom third up over the filling, then fold the sides inward to form an open-ended envelope. Press seam-side down on the pan 45–60 seconds to hold shape.
- Oven Finish & Rest : Bake wraps 3–4 minutes at 400°F (205°C) until the bottoms are lightly crisp and seams secure. Rest 3 minutes; serve warm with lemon wedges if desired.
Notes
Cool, wrap in foil, and refrigerate up to 4 days. Reheat on a dry skillet or toaster oven at 350°F / 175°C for 6–8 min to re-crisp. Swaps:
Goat cheese or part-skim mozzarella can replace feta; swap in baby arugula for part of the spinach; try sumac instead of lemon zest. Troubleshooting:
If the egg rounds tear, cook another minute before inverting. If wraps crack, warm tortillas a bit longer before folding.
