Ingredients

Scale

Wraps and Filling

  • 4 whole wheat tortillas
  • 1 cup cottage cheese, drained
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Vegetables

  • 1/2 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup spinach leaves
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots

Optional Garnish

  • Fresh herbs (parsley or dill), for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cottage Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the drained cottage cheese and Greek yogurt. Add garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and paprika. Stir well until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
  2. Prepare the Veggies: Thinly slice the cucumber and bell pepper. Shred the carrots and wash the spinach leaves thoroughly. Set the prepared vegetables aside to use when assembling the wraps.
  3. Assemble the Pinwheels: Lay one whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous and even layer of the cottage cheese mixture over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent overflow when rolling.
  4. Add the Veggies: Evenly layer the sliced cucumber, bell pepper, spinach leaves, and shredded carrots on top of the spread cottage cheese mixture, distributing the vegetables to the edges for maximum flavor in every bite.
  5. Roll the Tortilla: Carefully and tightly roll up the tortilla from one edge to the other, making sure the filling stays compact and inside. Repeat this step with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  6. Slice the Pinwheels: Using a sharp knife, cut each rolled tortilla into 1-inch thick pinwheels. Arrange the pinwheels neatly on a serving platter.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Garnish pinwheels with fresh herbs such as parsley or dill for added aroma and color. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 24 hours before serving.

Notes

  • Drain cottage cheese well to avoid soggy wraps.
  • Use fresh, crisp vegetables for the best texture.
  • Wraps can be made a few hours ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • Try adding other veggies like grated zucchini or avocado slices for variety.
  • For a spicier flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes to the filling.
