Hi friends!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Easy Egg Wraps just may be the world’s easiest snack idea. They’re also great for breakfast, lunch AND dinner. We’ve been making them for several years now and they’re still one of my favorites, along with my kids!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s why I like them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • They’re great warm or cold.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • They can be made ahead of time as part of your food prep. Learn more about meal prep in my course – Mastering Food Prep<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • You can fill them with anything you want.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • They’re super easy!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    What are the nutritional benefits of easy egg wraps?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    They’re similar to hard-boiled eggs in that they’re low-carb, gluten-free and high protein. A single egg contains 6 grams of protein plus healthy fats, Vitamins A, D and E and plus choline, iron and folate which are especially important in pregnancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Since I don’t care for hard-boiled egg yolk, these wraps are an easy alternative and a good way for me to make sure I’m getting the nutrients of the whole egg!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    These make a great lunch box addition! Especially with some cheese and pepperoni in them! Need more lunch box ideas? I have a whole guide! A Month of Easy Packed Lunches For Kids<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    My oldest, who doesn’t love hard-boiled eggs will eat these for breakfast if I warm them up so it’s another quick option to have on hand. You can even use them in place of a fried egg and serve them on toast or in an egg sandwich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Egg White Wraps – Can egg wraps be made with egg whites only?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Sure you could! I haven’t tried it myself but my guess is that you’d probably need 2-3 egg whites to make a wrap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Use the same technique to cook them as you do for regular egg wraps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Or try different versions like these Spinach and Feta Egg Wraps<\/a> or Low Carb Egg Wraps with Goat Cheese.<\/a> You can also buy Egglife Egg White Wraps<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
