Easy Breakfast Wrap
I will be starting my morning super early teaching 5;30 am spin class. You better believe we are going to set the room on fire since it’s so cold outside. I haven’t taught an early morning class in a few months, and you better believe I am going to be STARVING afterwards. Thank goodness for recipes like this one. It’s easy to throw together, full of protein and the veggies help fill me up! You better believe I’m going to be eating a slice (or maybe 3) of this Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bread.
Have you tried Lavash Wraps before? The have been a staple in my house for years, I discovered them when I first started trying to eat healthier. They have flax, oat bran and whole wheat and I just love them. They don’t upset my stomach like some other whole wheat wraps do and they are packed with protein! Each lavash has 100 calories, 14g. cabs and 10g protein. You can see that I use them to wrap up my breakfast!
Egg White Kale Wrap
Ingredients
- 1 lavash wrap Swap out lavash wrap for a gluten-free alternative.
- 5 egg whites
- 1/2 tsp. Mrs. Dash tomato basil garlic seasoning blend
- about 1/4 tsp. salt
- few cracks black pepper
- 1 cup chopped kale approximate
- 2 tbs. chopped red onion approximate
- 5-6 cherry tomatoes halved or quartered
- 1 tbs. sundried tomato estimate
- 1/2 small avocado sliced
Instructions
- In a small bowl add 5 egg whites (discard yolks). Add 1/2 tsp. Mrs. Dash tomato basil garlic seasoning blend and a pinch of salt. Whisk eggs to combined.
- Heat a small saute pan over medium heat. Once hot, spray with nonstick spray and kale and sliced tomatoes and pinch of salt and few cracks of black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, until the kale has wilted. Remove the kale and turn heat to medium low.
- Spray nonstick spray in the skillet and add the egg whites. Don't touch them. Cover the pan and allow to cook 3-4 minutes.
- After egg whites have set in the pan, you can now flip the entire egg at one time! Using a spatula, carefully flip the egg whites over and allow to cook 1-2 more minutes.
- Carefully remove egg onto the the lavash wrap. You will want to have the egg about an inch from the bottom of the lavash and in the center. Cover the egg with kale and tomato mixture. Add sundried tomato and sliced avocado.
- Wrap up the egg by first folding in the sides, then bring the lavash up over the eggs and then tighten to secure ingredients. Continue to roll until the lavash is completely wrapped up.
- Cut on the diagnal for pretty presentation. If eating this on the go, cover in foil, don't bother cutting.
- Enjoy!

Starving after my morning workout! My favorite go to breakfast is smoothies. I love the convenience of prepping them the night before. Your recipe looks delicious!
Sam
Jill I love smoothies as well – I’ve been drinking them until the cold snap. I just can’t seem to warm up after them lately. Thanks for the kind words 🙂
Kaylin @ Enticing Healthy Eating
Mmm, never tried a lavash wrap before, but one of my favorite types of wraps is Joseph’s Bakery flaxseed wraps. They’re the best! I’m hooked on them.
Sam
Kaylin, I think these are the same. Oh they are awesome 🙂

Eggs are always a great way to go in the morning. The protein keeps me full for hours. Thanks for the recipe girl! Happy Monday.
Sam
Your eggs always look yummy in your WIAW posts 🙂 I would ruin the yolk rushing around in the am! I hope you had a great first day of work!
Jill @ Champagne for Everyday
I love lavash bread!! I’ve been sticking to low FODMAP lately so haven’t got it in a while, but I bet it wouldn’t bother my stomach either. Do you ever find that the filling soaks through the wrap? I’ve never thought to stuff them with eggwhites so I’m excited to give this a try!!

Hey Jill! When I make my eggwhites I don’t scramble them, I let them come together like a little totilla themselves by covering the pan or cooking it on low on each side and not touching the eggs. I simply flip when they look done on one side. I put the filling in the egg first and it doesn’t soak through. Best of luck figuring out your tummy troubles.
Deborah @ Confessions of a Mother Runner

AJ @ NutriFitMama
This looks SO good. I am also starving after my morning workouts. I love getting them done as early as possible also, so a 5:30 class is definitely my thing- except in the winter. I don’t get up as early in the winter as I do the rest of the year- haha!
Sam
I only get up early to teach otherwise the warm bed is just too hard to get out of in the winter – i’m with you girl! Can’t wait to see the sun again 🙂
