The Viral Cottage Cheese Wrap You Must Try
By WISe Wellness Guild
Move over, boring bread—there’s a new crust in town, and it’s taking the internet by storm! Say hello to the easiest, protein-packed wrap or crust you’ll ever make: the viral cottage cheese crust. With just a cup of cottage cheese, one egg, and a dash of your favorite spices, you’re on your way to a crispy, delicious alternative to traditional wraps. We recommend starting with salt, pepper, and garlic powder for a classic flavor, or if you’re feeling adventurous, smoked paprika for a rich, smoky kick. The secret to success? Baking it on parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat at 375°F for 30 minutes—trust us, this little trick ensures it won’t stick and will crisp up beautifully!
Not only is this crust incredibly easy to whip up, but it’s also a nutritional powerhouse. Cottage cheese is packed with protein, calcium, and B12, making it a fantastic choice for those looking to fuel their bodies with wholesome ingredients. Whether you’re using it as a pizza base, a sandwich wrap, or a crispy flatbread, the possibilities are endless. Plus, it’s a great way to sneak in extra protein without resorting to the same old chicken breast routine. Who knew a simple blend of cottage cheese and egg could turn into such a game-changing kitchen hack?

Vegan Alternative:
And for all our plant-based friends—don’t feel left out! You can still hop on the cottage cheese crust train with a quick tweak. Simply bake cottage cheese on its own at 400°F for 30 minutes, and you’ll get a crispy, delicious crust. Without the egg, it won’t be as flexible for rolling, but it’s perfect as a crunchy base for layering your favorite toppings or even folding in half for a crispy, quesadilla-style snack. However you enjoy it, this easy, high-protein recipe is bound to become a staple in your kitchen. Who needs traditional bread when you can have this guilt-free, flavorful, and nutritious alternative?
Bake cottage cheese alone at 400°F for 30 minutes for a crispier, egg-free version.
Healthy Filling Ideas:
Protein-packed: Grilled chicken, turkey slices, or tofu
Veggie-loaded: Spinach, avocado, bell peppers, cucumbers
Healthy fats: Hummus, guacamole, or a drizzle of olive oil
