Layered Egg White Breakfast Recipe: Carbs from Veggies!

November 12, 2021

Try this layered egg white breakfast recipe and get your carbs from veggies! Using egg whites like a tortilla, this layered egg white breakfast can be filled with anything! I used low-calorie cheese, bell peppers, mushrooms, and avocados!

I eat egg whites almost daily. It’s the perfect low-calorie, high-protein food. Plus, there are so many different ways I’ve found to prepare them, including this layered egg white and veggie idea!

This idea came to me when I wanted to make a low-carb, gluten-free version of the TikTok Tortilla hack. I wanted to make the same type of meal, but with egg whites only.

This delicious layered egg white, inspired by the TikTok Tortilla hack, is the best breakfast when you are looking for something high in protein, and low in carbs. It's a delicious way for you to start the day with the energy you need!
