Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Cottage Cheese (Use full-fat for more sturdiness)
- 1 large Egg (Acts as a binder)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning (Can be swapped with oregano or basil)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder (Can be omitted)
- 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese (Creamy, melts beautifully)

- 1/2 cup Roasted Red Peppers (Can use fresh bell peppers)
- 1 medium Cucumber (Offers crispy crunch)
- 1 medium Avocado (Adds richness)
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic Glaze (Use sparingly to avoid sogginess)

Instructions
- Blend the Batter: In a blender, combine cottage cheese, egg, salt, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.
- Prepare the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Spread the Batter: Spread the cottage cheese batter onto the prepared baking sheet, creating an even layer about 1/8 inch thick.
- Bake the Wraps: Bake in the oven for 25-35 minutes until golden and flexible.
- Cool for Handling: Allow the wraps to cool for about 5 minutes before handling.
- Slice and Prepare Fillings: While cooling, prepare the fillings by slicing cucumber and avocado, and gathering arugula and roasted red peppers.
- Assemble the Wraps: Layer mozzarella cheese, arugula, roasted red peppers, cucumber, avocado, and basil in the center of each wrap.
- Roll the Wraps: Roll each wrap tightly like a burrito, ensuring they are snug.
- Drizzle and Serve: Drizzle each wrap with balsamic glaze and serve immediately.
