Recipe Ingredients
- Eggs – Use two large eggs for the base of the wrap.
- Milk – This enhances the flavor of the eggs and creates a thinner consistency for a large wrap. I recommend using 2% milk for the richest taste.
- Fillings – Sweet potato, sweet onion, spinach, fresh chives, and shredded cheddar cheese add vitamins, nutrients, fiber, and lots of flavor.
How to Make a Low-Carb Egg Roll Up Recipe
- Whisk the wet ingredients. Add the eggs and milk to a small mixing bowl, and whisk until smooth.
- Sweat the veggies. Peel and dice the sweet potato, and chop the onion. Grease a skillet with non-stick cooking spray, and add the potato and onion. Sweat until the veggies soften and are lightly browned. Then, set them aside.
- Heat a griddle. Grease a non-stick square griddle with a lip, and warm it over medium-low heat.
- Cook. Pour the egg mixture onto the hot pan. Tilt the pan from side to side to create an even layer. Cook until the egg begins to bubble. Then, flip, and shut off the heat.
- Cool. Allow the egg roll up to cool and solidify on the hot pan.
- Assemble. Place the egg sheet on a plate. Add the sweet potato and onion hash, finely chopped spinach, shredded cheese, and chives. Roll the egg up similar to a crepe.
- Serve. Top your roll up with your favorite toppings, and enjoy warm!

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do egg roll ups last? This recipe is best served right away while it’s warm. Otherwise, the wraps are likely to become difficult to work with.
Can I freeze this recipe? I don’t recommend it as the flavor and texture will change once thawed.
Can I make this recipe with egg whites? I haven’t tested it and can’t guarantee your results.

Egg Rolls Ups (Quick and Easy)
Equipment
- 1 skillet
- 1 griddle
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs, whisked
- 2 tablespoons 2% milk
Filling Options
- ¼ cup sweet potato, diced small
- ¼ cup sweet onion, diced small
- ¼ cup fresh spinach, any green will do
- 1 tablespoon shredded cheddar cheese
- pinch chives, chopped small
Instructions
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together 2 eggs and 2 tablespoons of 2% milk. Set aside.
- Next, you’ll want to peel and dice your sweet potato and onion into small evenly-sized pieces. Spray a skillet with cooking spray and add the onion and sweet potato. Sweat until softened and lightly browned. Set aside.
- Next, grab a nonstick square griddle with a lip (typically used for pancakes) and lightly spray it with cooking spray. Place it over medium low heat. Pour the egg mixture onto the pan. (Tilt the pan from side to side to make sure that the egg is evenly distributed across the pan.)
- The egg begin to lightly bubble, that’s when you’ll know it is safe to flip the egg sheet using a large spatula. Once you flip the egg sheet over, you can turn off the heat. Let the egg sheet cool before you begin to assemble your roll-up.
- Next, place the egg sheet on plate. Add the sweet potato and onion hash, chopped spinach, shredded cheese, and chives. Add any other ingredients you may want.
- Once all of the ingredients are loaded onto on your egg sheet, you will begin to gently roll the egg sheet to seal it closed. Similar to rolling a crepe. Top with salsa, sour cream or a sprinkle of shredded cheese and enjoy!
