Ingredients:

2 oz ham
54g
1/4 cup lowfat cottage cheese
54g
1 leaf lettuce
24g

Instructions:

2. Assemble the Wrap:
- Place the lettuce leaf on a plate or clean surface.
- Layer the ham slices evenly on top of the lettuce leaf.
- Scoop the cottage cheese onto the center of the ham layer.
3. Roll the Wrap:

4. Serve:
- Place the wrap on a plate, seam side down.
- For easier eating, cut the wrap in half or secure with a toothpick if desired.

Tips:

- Choose fresh, crisp lettuce leaves for the best texture and flavor. Butter lettuce or romaine can work well.

- Feel free to add seasonings to the cottage cheese, such as black pepper, paprika, or fresh herbs like parsley or chives, to enhance the flavor.

- Layer the ham and cottage cheese close to one end of the lettuce leaf to make wrapping easier.

- Use toothpicks to secure the wraps if needed, especially if you plan on serving them as appetizers.

- Experiment with additional fillings like sliced vegetables (e.g., cucumber, avocado, or bell peppers) for extra crunch and nutrition.
