Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1 — Cook the Egg
If using egg, scramble or fry it in a pan with a little oil or cooking spray.
Cook until set.
Remove from the pan and set aside.
Step 2 — Warm the Tortilla
Warm the tortilla in a pan or microwave for about 20 seconds.
This makes it soft, flexible, and easier to roll.
Step 3 — Spread the Cottage Cheese
Place the tortilla on a flat surface.
Spread cottage cheese evenly across the center of the wrap.
Keep the filling slightly away from the edges so it rolls neatly.
Step 4 — Add the Fillings
Layer on:
Avocado
Cooked egg
Spinach or lettuce, if using
You can use sliced avocado for texture or mashed avocado for a creamier wrap.
Step 5 — Season
Sprinkle with:
Salt
Black pepper
Chili flakes or paprika
For extra flavor, add a squeeze of lemon or a drizzle of hot sauce.
Step 6 — Wrap It Up
Fold in the sides of the tortilla.
Roll tightly like a burrito.
Press gently so the wrap holds its shape.
Step 7 — Serve
Slice in half if desired.
Serve immediately while fresh and creamy.
For a crispier wrap, toast it in a pan for 1–2 minutes per side.
