Ingredients
Wrap
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 large egg, at room temperature
- pinch of sea salt and ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
Jalapeno Popper Filling
- 4 - 6 ounces cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- sea salt, to taste
- 3 - 4 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon freshly shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 - 2 tablespoons pickled jalapenos or fresh jalapenos, chopped
- 1 slice cooked bacon, crumbled (nitrite-free is best)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Here's how to make it:
- To make the wrap, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line a small sheet pan with parchment paper. Spritz or brush with a bit of avocado oil to make sure it doesn't stick.
- In a small food processor or blender add the cottage cheese, egg, sea salt, pepper and oregano. Blend until smooth.
- Pour your cottage cheese mixture onto the parchment paper and bake for around 30 minutes in the middle rack of your preheated oven.
- To make the filling, place your cooked shredded chicken in a bowl. Add all of the seasonings, yogurt, cheese, jalapeno, bacon and vinegar. Stir well to combine. (Depending on your desired heat level, you can add more or less jalapeno. Depending on the creaminess of your yogurt, you may want a bit more or less. Add until your mixture is a consistency you like.)
- To assemble the wraps, once the wrap is done baking, allow it to completely cool. Gently peel your wrap from the parchment paper then add your chicken filling on one end. Wrap like you would a burrito, then wrap again in parchment paper to help hold it together until you're ready to eat. Slice and serve!
