The secret to this recipe is Egglife’s egg white wraps!

I should state that I have nothing against regular wraps or tortillas. But, I also support finding healthier and easy alternatives. So whether you chose a white wrap, a whole wheat wrap, an egg white wrap or a corn tortilla, my goal is to provide options so you can make the best choice for YOU.

Now back to the post…

Like the name implies, Egglife wraps are made of egg whites, so they’re naturally low in carbs and high in protein. They come in a variety of flavors ranging from original to everything, Italian, rye and southwestern.

Nutritionally, they contain (per wrap);

25-35 calories
5 – 6 grams of protein
1 gram or less of carbs
1 gram of saturated fat

Overall, I’m a fan! And while I still intend to use regular tortillas and wraps, these will definitely hold a spot in the rotation!
