- Customizable to your preferences—add more feta, spinach, or spices as desired
- Protein-packed and nutritious start to your day
- Great for on-the-go breakfast or lunch options
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 egg whites
- 3 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch size)
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add chopped spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, egg whites, salt, and pepper.
- In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture.
- As eggs begin to set, gently pull them across the pan with a spatula, forming large soft curds. Continue until eggs are thickened but still moist, about 3-5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and fold in the spinach mixture, sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese, oregano, and red pepper flakes if using.
- Warm the tortillas in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or in a dry skillet.
- Divide the egg mixture among the tortillas, placing it in the center of each.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll up from the bottom to create a wrap.
- For the authentic Starbucks experience, wrap each in parchment paper and heat in the microwave for 30 seconds before serving.
Tips & Variations
- For a lower-carb option, use a whole wheat tortilla or serve the filling in a bowl without the wrap
- Add a tablespoon of cream cheese to the egg mixture for extra creaminess
- Substitute goat cheese for feta if you prefer a milder flavor
- Make it spicier by adding more red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce
- For meal prep, make a large batch of the filling and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days
- Freeze assembled wraps (before the final heating) for up to 1 month—just remove from freezer, unwrap, and microwave for 1-2 minutes
Serving Suggestions
These copycat Starbucks spinach wraps pair perfectly with a homemade latte or cappuccino for the full coffee shop experience. For a more substantial meal, serve with a side of fresh fruit or crispy breakfast potatoes.
If you’re serving these for lunch, consider adding a simple side salad dressed with lemon vinaigrette to complement the Mediterranean flavors in the wrap.
Notes
- The egg mixture should be moist but fully cooked—overcooked eggs will become dry and rubbery
- If using frozen spinach instead of fresh, make sure to thaw completely and squeeze out excess moisture before using
- For the best flavor, allow the wrapped sandwiches to rest for 2-3 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days
FAQs
Can I make these wraps ahead of time?
Yes! You can assemble them completely, wrap in parchment paper, then in foil, and refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze for up to a month.
How do I reheat these wraps if they’re frozen?
Remove the foil but keep the parchment paper. Microwave for 1-2 minutes if refrigerated, or 2-3 minutes if frozen, until heated through.
Can I use egg substitute instead of real eggs?
Absolutely. Use the equivalent of 6 eggs worth of egg substitute for this recipe.
What’s the best way to prevent the tortilla from getting soggy?
Make sure your filling has cooled slightly before assembling, and if making ahead, wrap in parchment paper which will absorb some of the moisture while reheating.
