Ingredients

Wrap

2 large eggs
1 tbsp chopped fresh dill
1 small carrot, julienned or shredded
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
1 tbsp olive oil

Filling

1 tbsp cream cheese (or substitute with Greek yogurt or hummus)
A handful of fresh spinach leaves
½ red onion, thinly sliced (soak in water first if you want milder flavor)
3 tbsp canned tuna, drained
Chili flakes (optional, for a little heat)

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Egg Wrap

Whisk together eggs, chopped dill, shredded carrot, salt, and pepper. Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture, spreading it thin like a crepe. Cook until the bottom sets and turns golden, then carefully flip and cook the other side for another minute or two until fully set. Remove from pan and let cool briefly so the wrap holds together when filled.

Step 2: Add the Filling

Spread cream cheese (or Greek yogurt / hummus) over the egg wrap. Layer fresh spinach leaves, thin slices of red onion, and drained tuna on top. Sprinkle chili flakes if you like a bit of spice.

Step 3: Roll & Serve

Roll the wrap tightly, then slice in half for easier eating. Serve immediately — the wrap is best when fresh and the fillings are cool and flavorful.

Tips & Variations

Use a non-stick pan and moderate heat to ensure the wrap cooks evenly without sticking or breaking
Let the wrap cool briefly before filling to prevent fillings from sliding out
Boost protein by adding slices of hard‑boiled egg or mixing mashed avocado for healthy fats and creaminess
For a dairy‑free version: skip cream cheese and use hummus or mashed avocado instead
Meal‑prep friendly: you can make the egg wrap ahead and refrigerate (unfilled) for up to 2 days. Add filling just before eating for the best texture
