The past few months I've been in love with pasteurized liquid egg whites. I buy cartons of for smoothies and morning omelets and use them daily for the protein boost (I gave up whey protein and swapped it for egg whites).
So when AllWhites Egg Whites reached out for me to test and post one of their recipes, I was all in!

They gave me 3 recipe options to choose from:
The one that interested me the most was the wrap. I never really considered using egg white to make more of a lunch style dish. Egg whites just always equaled breakfast for me.
Well, no more!
This wrap was really tasty and so simple to make. I modified the original recipe slightly (of course) as I only wanted one serving but it was easy to do.
I pulled out the ingredients, most of which I had on hand...
... and got to work.
Here's what I did...
- ½ cup AllWhites egg whites
- 1 tsp prepared basil pesto (I bought a small jar -- this stuff is dangerously good!)
- ~1 cup chopped fresh baby spinach leaves
- 1 oz crumbled feta cheese
- 1 whole-wheat flatbread
- 1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
Spray a small nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat.
Beat AllWhites egg whites and pesto together with a fork. Pour into skillet. Stir in spinach.
As eggs start to set, lift the edges with a spatula, allowing uncooked eggs to flow to bottom of skillet. Cook until eggs are set but still moist. I shaped mine to match the size of my flatbread.
Sprinkle with feta; cover and cook 1 minute longer.
Top the flatbread with a thin layer of tomatoes.
Top with the egg.
Roll up and cut.
After my first bite I was shocked how much that little teaspoon of pesto flavored the whole wrap. And mixed with the salty feta, it was delicious! I will totally make it again.
AllWhites has lots of great ideas on its site. Check them out on social media, too:
As for nutritional information, my version came out a little lighter as I didn't add the mayo from the original recipe. Honestly, I don't think it needs it. There was a lot of moisture in this wrap.

When I need good healthy recipes I check out your blog. The first time was when I was looking for a turkey burger made with oats. I found your recipe for Southwest Burgers, added and subtracted some ingredients along the way, make enough to freeze and my husband and I love them. Once they are frozen, just take them out, pop them in the microwave and there you have an easy meal. Of course, I cooked them first. I'm thinking the next thing I will try is the spinach, pesto, feta wrap. We love wraps in our house, so easy and fun. Thanks for all the good stuff you post.
Thanks so much Sally! I appreciate the feedback.
Do the eggs come from caged or uncaged hens?
According to their website they are not but you may want to contact them directly.
