Directions:

Step 1: Preparation

In a bowl, mix cottage cheese, almond flour, egg, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined. This mixture will be the base for your delicious flatbread.

Step 2: Heating the Pan

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a little olive oil. This oil helps the flatbread get that perfect golden color and crispiness.

Step 3: Cooking the Flatbread

Pour a portion of the mixture into the pan to form a flatbread and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.

Step 4: Finishing the Flatbreads

Repeat the cooking process with the remaining mixture until all flatbreads are cooked. Place them aside to cool slightly.

Step 5: Assembling the Wraps

To assemble, lay out the cooked flatbread, add shredded chicken, spinach, and avocado as desired. Feel free to customize with your favorite veggies or sauces.

Step 6: Rolling the Wraps

Roll up the flatbread to create a wrap and serve immediately. The combination of textures and flavors will delight your taste buds!
