Ingredients
  

  • THE KETO 'TORTILLA'
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml / 0.5 fl oz) coconut oil, butter, or peanut oil, for frying
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • ¼ cup (24 g / 0.85 oz) unflavored egg white or whey protein powder
  • 2 ounces (56 g / 1.98 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • SUGGESTED FILLING
  • 2 cups (120 g / 4.2 oz) chopped organic lettuce
  • 1 pound (450 g / 15.9 oz) organic chicken, beef, or pork loin, cooked and sliced
  • 1 cup (150 g / 5.3 oz) marinated or sautéed bell peppers
  • 1 cup (240 ml) salsa
  • 1 large avocado, sliced or mashed
  • FOR PERFECT PROTEIN WRAPS
  • Ensure your bowl and beaters are completely clean and free of any fat or grease, as this will prevent your egg whites from whipping up properly.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute the 2 oz (56.7 g) of cream cheese with the 3 reserved egg yolks, whisked until smooth before folding in.
  • These wraps are best served fresh, but you can store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Separate them with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Method
 

  1. DIRECTIONS
  2. In a clean, dry, and cool bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the 3 egg whites until very stiff peaks form. This is the key to a fluffy texture. Gently fold in the protein powder, then carefully fold in the softened cream cheese, trying not to deflate the egg whites.
  3. Heat the oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water sizzles instantly.
  4. Pour about ¼ of the batter into the pan, spreading it into a thin, even circle.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Carefully remove the 'tortilla' from the pan and place it on a plate.
  7. Repeat with the remaining batter to make 4 wraps. Load them up with your favorite low-carb fillings, roll, and enjoy immediately!
  8. Don't let the pan get too hot. Medium heat is perfect. If the wraps brown too quickly, the inside will remain undercooked and eggy.
