Description
This high protein cottage cheese breakfast wrap is a quick, satisfying way to start the day. Creamy scrambled eggs are mixed with cottage cheese for an extra boost of protein, then wrapped in a warm tortilla with fresh avocado, tomato, and herbs.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
- 2 tortillas
- 1 large avocado (diced)
- 1 medium tomato (diced)
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley or cilantro (chopped)
- 1 tsp olive oil or ghee
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
- Optional: squeeze of fresh lime
Instructions
- Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and whisk until well combined.
- Heat the olive oil or ghee in a skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the eggs and cook slowly, stirring gently so they stay soft and creamy.
- When the eggs are almost set, stir in the cottage cheese. Cook for another 30–60 seconds until everything is warmed through and creamy, then remove from heat.
- In a small bowl, gently mix together the diced tomato, avocado, fresh parsley, a pinch of salt, and a squeeze of lime juice.
- Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet for about 10–20 seconds per side until soft and flexible.
- To assemble, place the eggs in the center of the tortilla and top with the tomato and avocado mixture. Add another squeeze of lime if you’d like.
- Fold in the sides and roll the tortilla tightly into a wrap.
- For a golden finish, you can toast the wrap in a pan or toaster for 1–2 minutes before serving.
