Cottage Cheese Wrap Pinwheels are a light and healthy snack that’s perfect for lunchboxes, parties, or a quick bite. These pinwheels are made with fresh, creamy cottage cheese wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla, and you can easily customize them with your favorite veggies and seasonings. The combination of protein-packed cottage cheese and crunchy vegetables makes these pinwheels both satisfying and nutritious.

Ingredients:

• 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
• 1/2 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup spinach leaves
• 1/4 cup shredded carrots
• Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cottage Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese and Greek yogurt. Add garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and paprika. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
2. Prepare the Veggies: Thinly slice the cucumber and bell pepper. Shred the carrots and wash the spinach leaves. Set the vegetables aside.
3. Assemble the Pinwheels: Lay a whole wheat tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous amount of the cottage cheese mixture evenly across the entire surface of the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
4. Add the Veggies: Layer the sliced cucumber, bell pepper, spinach, and shredded carrots on top of the cottage cheese spread.
5. Roll the Tortilla: Carefully roll up the tortilla, ensuring the filling stays tightly wrapped. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas.
6. Slice the Pinwheels: Once all the tortillas are rolled, use a sharp knife to slice them into 1-inch pinwheels. Arrange the pinwheels on a platter.
7. Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish the pinwheels with fresh herbs like parsley or dill for extra flavor. Serve immediately or store in the fridge for later.
