When I get bored of classic sandwiches and sweet oatmeal, not options, I turn to a delicious cottage cheese wrap recipe. It's a satisfying meal that keeps hunger at bay for a long time and is easy to prepare.

Cottage cheese is often eaten straight from the container, sometimes with added radishes or chives. However, I bake it on a baking sheet to create a simple base for the wrap. This base is not a tortilla or lavash. This recipe is a refreshing twist on a traditional breakfast.

When the bread runs out at home, or I want a change from regular rolls or bread, I use cottage cheese as a tasty and healthy substitute that turns into a wrap after baking.

This wrap contains guacamole, ham, cheese, arugula, tomato, and an egg. It's abundant and filling—I don't know anyone who would still be hungry after eating this.

Ingredients:

          
  • 21 oz cottage cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Provencal herbs
  • 1 teaspoon dried garlic
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Add-ons:

              
  • 3 oz guacamole
  • 2 slices of cooked ham
  • 3 slices of cheddar cheese
  • ½ oz arugula
  • 1 tomato
  • 1 hard-boiled egg

Preparation:

Step 1. Drain the cottage cheese and transfer it to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Shape it into a rectangle about 10 inches by 12 inches. Sprinkle with Provencal herbs, dried garlic, and salt. Bake in a preheated oven at 390°F for 30 minutes, then let it cool.

Step 2. Spread guacamole on half the baked wrap—layer slices of cooked ham, cheddar cheese, arugula, and tomato. Finally, grate the hard-boiled egg on top. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
