Description

Quick 2-Ingredient Cottage Cheese Wraps offer a simple, protein-packed, and nutritious meal solution perfect for busy days. Made with just cottage cheese and soft tortillas, these wraps come together in under 10 minutes and can be easily customized with fresh herbs, veggies, or spices. They provide a light yet filling option that’s perfect for quick lunches, snacks, or light dinners.


Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • High-quality cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat), 1 cup
  • Soft tortillas or wraps (whole wheat, gluten-free, or regular), 2 large

Optional Add-ins

  • Fresh herbs like basil, cilantro, or dill (to taste)
  • Sliced veggies such as cucumber, tomato, or bell peppers (to taste)
  • Spices like chili flakes, paprika, or black pepper (to taste)
  • Sweet additions like honey drizzle or sliced apple/pear (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Scoop your desired amount of cottage cheese into a bowl and let it come to room temperature for a smoother texture. Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface to make assembly easy.
  2. Spread Cottage Cheese: Using a spoon or spatula, evenly spread a generous layer of cottage cheese across each tortilla, leaving about an inch around the edges to prevent overflow when rolling.
  3. Add Optional Fillings: Customize your wraps by adding fresh herbs, sliced vegetables, spices, or sweet touches according to your preference to enhance flavor and texture.
  4. Roll and Secure: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly around the filling, folding in edges if needed to keep everything neatly inside.
  5. Serve or Pack: Slice the wraps in half if you like, then enjoy immediately or wrap them up for a convenient meal on the go.

Notes

  • Use chilled cottage cheese for better texture and a refreshing taste.
  • Choose soft, pliable tortillas to prevent cracking or tearing while rolling.
  • Pat dry any fresh veggies to avoid soggy wraps.
  • Make these wraps ahead and refrigerate, adding delicate fresh herbs just before serving.
  • Roll the wraps tightly to keep fillings secure and easy to eat.
