I love these easy breakfast burritos inspired by Starbucks spinach, feta, and egg white wraps. We make them with whole eggs, but tips for using egg whites are below the recipe. They can be made ahead of time and kept in the freezer for a quick breakfast another day.
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 cup (70g) sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained and chopped
1 cup (40g) packed fresh spinach leaves
4 large eggs, see notes for substituting egg white
1/4 cup (28g) crumbled feta cheese, 1 ounce
2 large flour tortillas, 8 inches or larger in diameter
Salt and fresh ground black pepper
Crack eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt, and whisk until well blended.
Heat the oil in a medium non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and cook until warm and fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Pour the eggs into the skillet and immediately use a silicone spatula to swirl in small circles around the pan, without stopping, until the eggs look slightly thickened and very small curds begin to form, about 30 seconds.
Add the spinach leaves, and then change from making circles to making long sweeps across the pan until you see larger, creamy curds and the spinach turns bright green and wilts, about 20 seconds.
When the eggs are softly set and slightly runny in places, remove the pan from the heat and leave for a few seconds to finish cooking. Give a final stir and assemble burritos.
Place the tortillas on a flat work surface. Then, spoon half of the egg and spinach mixture down the center of each tortilla. Divide the cheese between each burrito and scatter it over the egg.
Fold the sides of the tortillas over the filling, and then tightly roll the end closest to you up and around the filling, pushing any bits that fall out back into the middle of the burrito. Place the burrito seam-side down.
For toasted burritos: Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Place burritos seam-side down into the hot pan and toast until the underside is lightly browned and crisp, 20 to 60 seconds. Rotate the burrito and repeat on all sides.
Wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days, or tightly wrap each burrito individually in foil and then place in a resealable freezer bag or container. Freeze for up to 3 months.
To reheat frozen burritos, unwrap the burrito, place it onto a microwave-safe plate, cover it with a paper towel, and microwave for one minute. Flip and microwave for another 1 to 2 minutes, or until the center is hot. Enjoy immediately, or add a crunchy exterior by following the directions for toasted burritos above.
