This Easy Cottage Cheese Wrap is a quick, protein-packed meal that’s perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a post-workout snack. Creamy cottage cheese, crisp veggies, and a soft tortilla make for a deliciously satisfying bite in under 10 minutes.
Origin Easy Cottage Cheese Wrap
Wraps became popular in the U.S. in the 1980s as a healthier alternative to sandwiche, and cottage cheese—widely used in European and Indian diets—found its place in modern health food trends. Its rise in high-protein, low-fat meal prep made it a go-to ingredient in simple wraps and bowls.
What I Love About This Recipe
What I love is how insanely easy and flexible this wrap is. You can go savory with tomatoes, cucumbers, and spinach, or add a sweet twist with honey and berries. The texture of cottage cheese paired with fresh veggies gives a satisfying crunch, and it’s super filling without being heavy. I often roll a few ahead of time for a busy day—they keep well and taste even better chilled. It’s also a great way to sneak in more protein without feeling like you’re eating diet food.
