Cucumber Cottage Cheese Wraps

Ingredients (makes 4 wraps):

4 large flour tortillas or spinach wraps

1 cup cottage cheese (small curd preferred)

1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced or julienned

1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper (optional, for crunch)

1/4 cup chopped fresh dill or parsley

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon lemon juice or white wine vinegar

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or a small minced garlic clove (optional)

Optional add-ins: baby spinach, shredded carrots, sliced avocado

Instructions:

Prepare the filling:

In a medium bowl, mix the cottage cheese with lemon juice, garlic powder (if using), chopped herbs, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.

Assemble the wraps:

Lay out each tortilla. Spread 1/4 of the cottage cheese mixture in the center of each wrap.

Add vegetables:

Top with sliced cucumber, red bell pepper, and any optional veggies like spinach or avocado.

Wrap it up:

Fold in the sides and roll tightly like a burrito.

Serve:

Slice in half diagonally if desired. Serve immediately or wrap in parchment/plastic wrap for later.

Tip: For extra crunch, try adding some sunflower seeds or sliced almonds inside before wrapping.

I work this morning but going to make after and I have all the ingredients on hand. I was wondering how to use up the tortilla wraps and this will be perfect. The best part is you can add any veggies inside you want.

I have been on a eat better routine and this fits right in. I don't like to say diet because it is more stop eating ****** when walk in the door or get bored. If I eat better I am more satisfied too. I am off for a week so this will be a good go to for lunch. I think my daughter would enjoy this also so make up some extras.

Thanks for the idea and love when I find something like this. I like simple meals and recipes.

@northiie57 ...looks tempting and healthy.

Just wondering if the filling squished out when you bite into it??

The filling combination sounds terrific. I usually have most of the ingredients on hand. I'd skip the tortilla and eat it from the bowl.

I made this for my lunch today and had some watermelon on the side. Very good and will be making this again. Taking a couple over to my daughter and have the last one for lunch tomorrow.

I used the smaller tortilla shells and wanted to use the ones I had on hand. I did pick up some fresh dill. I put in mine avocado, cucumbers, tomato and green and orange peppers. Had those left from a pasta salad I had made.

For me a little less dill and garlic powder and perhaps try fresh garlic next time. But definitely on my list of things to make often. The beauty is add what you want. Fresh mushrooms would be good.

I think these would be fun for girls night at the house and have the ingredients cut up and available and let them choose what they would like in it. Make your own type of thing.

I make pizzas with the tortilla shells. I add sauce, mushrooms and tomatoes and top with cheese and bake. Very good and lower calories as well. Sometimes I want something like that instead of a regular pizza. Easy to do for one as well.

I made 1 today. I added diced celery,green pepper, and carrots. Seasoned with garlic and onion powder, salt/ pepper. I had a hard time trying to roll it, so i just tucked the ends under and had it on a plate...couldn't pick it up, so I cut it. Very refreshing and filling too.

I didn't know if I'd like it, mixing cottage cheese, I usually don't eat...but I enjoyed it and no doubt felt like a healthy meal.

I made cucumber salad for the first time and it was pretty good. Been watching a ton of tik tok videos for the food hack recipes and can't wait to try some.

Next will be the lemonade frozen drink with condensed milk etc, looks yummy,

Also the pie fillings put into puff pastry dough. First the blueberry, I have to make the syrup for them first and then the apple or cherry pie filling. You can also make them and put into biscuits. A little fattening but I don't eat much.
