Ingredients You’ll Need + Notes/Substitutions:

Below is an overview of the main ingredients and a few easy substitutions you can make. Exact quantities are in the recipe card further down.

• Eggs: Eggs are the base of the omelet; they provide structure and flavor.
• Water: A little water whisked into the eggs keeps the omelet light and tender. If you prefer, substitute an unsweetened non-dairy milk such as almond, cashew, rice, oat, or tigernut milk.
• Spring Onions: Also called green onions or scallions; you can swap chives or leeks if you like.
• Mushrooms: Fresh button mushrooms work well; portobello or cremini are good alternatives.
• Spinach: Fresh baby spinach is ideal, but other leafy greens like arugula, kale, or beet greens will also work.

How to Make Spinach Omelet Wraps (Step by Step):

1. Beat Eggs with Water

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs together with the water until well combined.

2. Season

Stir in salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

3. Heat Oil

Warm a small amount of olive oil in a non-stick skillet or omelet pan over medium heat.

4. Cook Omelet

Pour half of the egg mixture into the skillet and tilt the pan so the eggs cover the surface. Sprinkle half the chopped spring onions evenly over the top. Cook gently for about 2–3 minutes, then use a spatula to flip and cook the other side briefly. Slide the omelet onto a plate and repeat with the remaining egg mixture and onions.

5. Assemble

Place each omelet spring-onion side down. Divide sliced mushrooms and fresh spinach between the omelets, then roll them up like a burrito.

6. Serve

Serve the omelet wraps with a simple salad or the side of your choice and enjoy while warm.

Tips and Variations:

• Add Cheese: For extra flavor, stir in a bit of shredded dairy-free cheese. If you tolerate dairy, crumbled feta, grated parmesan, or cheddar are tasty options.
• Other Vegetables: Add diced bell pepper, shredded carrot, or sliced zucchini to the omelet for more color and texture.
• Seasonings: In addition to salt and pepper, try red pepper flakes, chili powder, or smoked paprika for a touch of heat and depth.
• Egg-White Option: To reduce cholesterol, make the omelets with egg whites only (for example, 4 egg whites instead of 2 whole eggs per omelet).
