How to Make Mediterranean Egg Wrap

  1. Heat oil: Start by heating 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat, allowing it to shimmer slightly before you add the spinach.
  2. Sauté spinach: Add 2 cups of baby spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted, which should take about 2-3 minutes—the color will turn vibrant green!
  3. Whisk eggs: In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, seasoning them with kosher salt and black pepper to taste. This mixture will create a savory, fluffy base for your wrap.
  4. Scramble eggs: Pour the eggs into the skillet with the wilted spinach, gently stirring until the mixture is fully cooked and lightly scrambled, about 3-4 minutes. The eggs should look fluffy and golden!
  5. Prepare tortilla: Place a whole wheat tortilla in the skillet and immediately top it with the scrambled eggs, 2 tablespoons of chopped sun-dried tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of crumbled feta cheese, and a handful of thinly sliced red onions.
  6. Fold and crisp: Carefully fold the tortilla over the fillings and continue to cook until it’s golden brown and crisp on both sides, roughly 2-3 minutes per side. You want it to be warm and deliciously cheesy inside!

Optional: Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of fresh herbs for an extra touch.

Storage Tips for Mediterranean Egg Wrap

  • Fridge: Store leftover Mediterranean Egg Wrap in an airtight container for up to 3 days to maintain freshness and flavor.
  • Freezer: For longer storage, freeze the wrap (wrapped tightly in plastic wrap) for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge before reheating.
  • Reheating: To reheat, warm in a skillet over medium heat for 5–7 minutes or in the microwave for 1–2 minutes, ensuring it’s heated through.
  • Avoid sogginess: If storing the filling separately, assemble the wrap just before serving to keep the tortilla crisp.

Make Ahead Options

These Mediterranean Egg Wraps are perfect for busy home cooks looking to save time during hectic weekdays! You can prepare the filling—scrambled eggs, sautéed spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and crumbled feta—up to 3 days in advance. Simply store the mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness. The tortillas can be stacked and wrapped tightly in plastic wrap for up to 24 hours before assembly. When you’re ready to enjoy your meal, just reheat the filling in a skillet, assemble the wrap, and cook until crispy. This way, you can savor a delicious Mediterranean Egg Wrap without the hassle of starting from scratch each time!

Mediterranean Egg Wrap Variations

Feel free to personalize your wrap with these delightful twists that will tantalize your taste buds!

  • Spinach Swaps: Replace baby spinach with kale or Swiss chard for a different flavor profile and additional nutrients. Both greens add their unique textures, making each wrap a new experience.

  • Cheese Choices: Use goat cheese or shredded mozzarella instead of feta for a milder or creamier texture that still melts beautifully. Discovering the creaminess of goat cheese might just become your new favorite!

  • Tortilla Type: Swap out whole wheat tortillas for gluten-free options or corn tortillas to cater to dietary preferences without sacrificing taste. It’s amazing how a new tortilla can change the whole vibe of the meal!

  • Veggie Boost: Add sliced bell peppers, mushrooms, or zucchini to the filling for extra veggies and vibrant colors. The more greens, the merrier—each additional ingredient brings its delicious crunch.

  • Spice It Up: Incorporate some diced jalapeños or red pepper flakes for a touch of heat if you crave a little spice in your life. The warmth will awaken your senses in every bite!

  • Herb Infusion: Sprinkle in fresh herbs like basil or parsley for an aromatic surprise and an extra burst of flavor that contrasts beautifully with the savory elements.

  • Protein Power: Toss in cooked diced chicken or turkey for an added protein punch, making it a heartier meal that satisfies even the hungriest of appetites.

  • Sweet Twist: Consider adding a touch of avocado or a smear of hummus inside for a smooth, creamy layer that will enrich the overall taste. It’s a delightful surprise your palate will adore.

Expert Tips for the Mediterranean Egg Wrap

  • Fresh Ingredients Matter: Always use fresh baby spinach and high-quality feta; freshness elevates the entire Mediterranean Egg Wrap.

  • Don’t Overcook Eggs: Scramble just until the eggs are fluffy and no longer runny; overcooked eggs can become rubbery and dry.

  • Customize Your Fillings: Feel free to add other veggies like bell peppers or mushrooms for extra flavor and nutrition.

  • Golden Crispy Perfection: Ensure the skillet is hot enough before folding the tortilla; this will give you that delightful crunch everyone loves.

  • Perfect Tortilla Handling: If your tortilla breaks when folding, it might be too cold; warm it slightly before assembly for easier handling.

Mediterranean Egg Wrap Recipe FAQs

What kind of spinach should I use?
Absolutely use fresh baby spinach, as it has a delicate texture and mild flavor that works wonderfully in the Mediterranean Egg Wrap. If you can only find mature spinach, just be sure to remove the tougher stems for a more pleasant bite.

How should I store leftovers?
Store any leftover Mediterranean Egg Wrap in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. This helps to keep the wrap fresh. If you want to preserve it longer, check the next question for freezing options!

Can I freeze the wrap?
Yes! To freeze the Mediterranean Egg Wrap, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it in a freezer-safe bag. This will keep it fresh for up to 2 months. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, simply thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.

How do I reheat the Mediterranean Egg Wrap?
To reheat your wrap, I recommend warming it gently in a skillet over medium heat for 5–7 minutes. This will help retain its crispy texture. Alternatively, you can pop it in the microwave for 1–2 minutes, but make sure to check that it’s heated all the way through.

Any tips for making the eggs fluffier?
Certainly! For fluffier eggs, beat them well before pouring into the skillet, and be sure to cook them over low to medium heat. Stir gently and frequently, and remove from heat just as they’re about to set. This prevents them from getting rubbery and ensures a soft, delightful filling.

Can I make this wrap gluten-free?
Very much so! You can swap the whole wheat tortilla for a gluten-free alternative, such as corn or almond flour tortillas. Just ensure the labels are gluten-free as cross-contamination can occur. This way, everyone can enjoy this delicious Mediterranean Egg Wrap!
