How to Make Spinach Feta Wraps
Step 1: Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 2: Cook the Vegetables
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened. Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted.
Step 3: Add the Eggs
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently stir until the eggs are fully cooked. Remove from the heat.
Step 4: Add the Feta
Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and diced tomatoes over the warm egg and spinach mixture, gently folding everything together.
Step 5: Assemble the Wraps
Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Divide the filling evenly among the tortillas and add any optional ingredients, such as avocado or hummus.
Step 6: Fold and Roll
Fold in the sides of each tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom to create secure wraps.
Step 7: Toast the Wraps (Optional)
Place the wraps seam-side down in a warm skillet for 1 to 2 minutes per side until lightly golden and crispy.
Step 8: Serve
Slice each wrap in half and serve immediately with a side salad, fresh fruit, or yogurt.
