Equipment

Ingredients

Crust/wrap:

4 large egg whites 132g
3 tablespoons unflavored pea protein blend 19g
1 tablespoon whole husk psyllium 7g
2 pinches sea salt
dash each of basil, parsley, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder

Filling:

½ cup low-moisture part-skim mozzarella cheese 56g
1 tablespoon grated Locatelli Pecorino Romano cheese 5g
½ cup part-skim ricotta cheese 126g
additional garlic powder and basil

Instructions

Preheat your griddle over a medium flame. (If necessary, first spray with non-stick cooking spray or rub with a few drops of olive oil.)
Beat the crust ingredients until smooth.
Wait until the griddle is hot enough (when drops of water sizzle up).
Spread half your batter into a thin circle (mine were approximately 8.5 inches (21.5cm)).
After a couple of minutes, flip the wrap over.
Remove from heat and repeat the steps for the second wrap.
Line your broiler tray with foil, and place wraps on top.
Top with mozzarella, grated cheese, and ricotta. Leave a little extra crust room on one side so the filling doesn't spill out when you fold it up. (Typical white pizza has mounds of ricotta, but you can instead spread the ricotta on the wrap before adding the other cheeses.)
Broil for a few minutes, until cheese is melted to your liking.
Remove from broiler, and wrap like a burrito.
Enjoy!

Notes

I wouldn't substitute a different type of protein powder in the wraps. Whey protein would make a crepe, not anything bread-like at all.

Don't leave out or substitute the psyllium husk. It gives the wrap the bread-like texture we need. Without it, your wrap will likely be thinner and not fold as well.

And because I'm an Italian-American girl from Brooklyn, we're not going to make any subs to the cheeses. ;)
