# Instructions:
01 -
In a food processor, combine 2 cups low-fat cottage cheese, 2 large eggs, 1/4 cup almond flour, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and salt to taste. Blend until smooth, scraping down sides as needed. This forms the base for your High Protein & Low Carb Cottage Cheese Wraps.
02 -
Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pour 1/4 cup of the cottage cheese mixture per wrap onto the parchment, spreading into thin 6-inch circles. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden and set, creating perfect High Protein & Low Carb Cottage Cheese Wraps.
03 -
While wraps bake, in a medium bowl, combine 1 cup shredded rotisserie chicken breast, 1/2 cup finely diced cucumber, 1/4 cup finely diced red bell pepper, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh spinach. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of ingredients.
04 -
In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 1 tsp dried dill, 1/2 tsp onion powder, and salt and pepper to taste. This tangy drizzle adds a burst of flavor to your High Protein & Low Carb Cottage Cheese Wraps.
05 -
Once the cottage cheese wraps are cooled slightly, spread a portion of the chicken and vegetable filling down the center of each wrap. Drizzle with the tangy yogurt sauce. Carefully roll up each wrap, ensuring the filling is secure.
06 -
Arrange the High Protein & Low Carb Cottage Cheese Wraps on a serving platter. Garnish generously with 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives. Serve immediately for a fresh, satisfying, and nutritious meal.
# Notes:
01 -
Feel free to customize your filling! Try adding diced avocado, shredded carrots, or a sprinkle of feta cheese for extra flavor and texture.
02 -
Leftover cottage cheese wraps can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently or enjoy cold.
03 -
For crispier wraps, bake them for an additional 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. Ensure they are fully cooled before filling to prevent sogginess.
04 -
These wraps are excellent for meal prep! Prepare the wraps and filling separately, then assemble just before serving to maintain freshness.
