Wrap Ingredients
- 2 pieces whole wheat flatbread
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Filling Ingredients
- 1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
- 1 tablespoon plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup cooked chicken breast, diced
- 1/2 cup baby spinach leaves
- 1 small tomato, sliced
Instructions
- Prepare the cottage cheese mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the low-fat cottage cheese, plain Greek yogurt, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir the mixture until it is smooth and well blended.
- Heat the flatbread: Place a skillet over medium heat and lightly brush each whole wheat flatbread with olive oil on both sides to prevent sticking and to add flavor.
- Warm the flatbreads: Place each flatbread in the heated skillet and warm for about 1 minute on each side, or until they become pliable and develop a slight golden color.
- Spread the filling: Evenly spread the cottage cheese mixture over each warmed flatbread, creating a creamy base layer for the wrap.
- Add toppings: Distribute the diced cooked chicken breast, baby spinach leaves, and tomato slices evenly over the cottage cheese spread to build the wrap’s filling.
- Roll and serve: Tightly roll up each flatbread with the filling inside, then slice each wrap diagonally in half to serve. Enjoy immediately for best taste and texture.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider adding a squeeze of lemon juice or a sprinkle of chili flakes to the cottage cheese mixture.
- Use fresh, cooked chicken for the best texture; leftover roasted or grilled chicken works well.
- These wraps can be prepared ahead and stored in the refrigerator; wrap tightly in plastic wrap to keep fresh.
- To make it vegetarian, omit the chicken and add extra vegetables like cucumber or bell peppers.
- Warm the flatbread gently to avoid tearing or drying out the bread.
