Ingredients
Scale
1 large low-carb tortilla or spinach tortilla
1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1 cup fresh spinach, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh chives, minced
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Pinch of salt
1/4 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese (optional, for texture)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the cottage cheese, chopped spinach, minced chives, garlic powder, pepper, and salt. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
If you want a warmer filling, gently heat the mixture in a microwave-safe bowl for 15 to 20 seconds, stirring halfway through. Do not overheat.
Lay the tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread the cottage cheese and spinach mixture evenly over the center of the tortilla, leaving about a one-inch border on all sides.
Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the filling, if using.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla first, then tightly roll the wrap from the bottom edge upwards until completely closed.
Slice the wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately for a protein packed lunch wrap.
Notes
For a keto spinach wrap, use a specific low-carb or almond flour tortilla.
You can add 1/4 cup of diced bell pepper or sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor and crunch.
This filling works well for meal prep cottage cheese wraps; store the filling separately and assemble just before eating.
