Recipe Details

  • Servings: 1 wrap

  • Prep Time: 5 mins | Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 large whole-wheat tortilla (or high-fiber wrap)

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/4 cup low-fat cottage cheese

  • 1/4 avocado, sliced or cubed

  • 1/4 cup tomato, diced

  • 1 tsp olive oil or butter

  • Salt, black pepper, and chopped cilantro to taste

Instructions

  1. Scramble: Whisk eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat oil in a pan over medium-low heat, add eggs, and scramble gently until just cooked through. Set aside.

  2. Assemble: Lay the tortilla flat. Spread the cottage cheese down the center. Layer the warm scrambled eggs, diced tomatoes, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro on top.

  3. Fold & Toast: Fold in the sides and roll tightly. Place the wrap back onto the hot pan for 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown and crisp. Cut in half to reveal the beautiful layers.

Notes & Tips

  • Drain Excess Moisture: Pat the diced tomatoes dry with a paper towel to prevent the wrap from becoming soggy.

  • Warm the Tortilla: Microwave the tortilla for 10 seconds before rolling to make it more pliable and prevent tearing.

Health Benefit

  • Sustained Energy: The combination of fast- and slow-digesting proteins (eggs and cottage cheese casein) paired with healthy monounsaturated fats from avocado prevents blood sugar spikes and keeps cravings at bay.

Q&A

Q: Can I meal prep this wrap?

A: It is best fresh. If prepping ahead, store the cooked eggs and chopped fillings separately, then assemble and toast right before eating so the avocado doesn’t brown and the cottage cheese stays fresh.
