Turkey ham and cottage cheese lettuce wraps are a quick, nutritious, and low-carb meal option, perfect for a light lunch or a healthy snack. Combining the lean protein of turkey ham with the creamy texture of cottage cheese, all wrapped in fresh, crisp lettuce, this recipe is simple yet satisfying.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Slice the 4 oz turkey ham into thin, easy-to-handle strips if it's not already pre-sliced.
- Measure out 1/4 cup of low-fat cottage cheese.
- Wash and pat dry the lettuce leaf. If the lettuce leaf is too large, you may want to cut it in half to make it more manageable.
- Lay the lettuce leaf out flat on a clean surface or cutting board.
- Place the slices of turkey ham evenly on top of the lettuce leaf.
- Spoon the 1/4 cup of cottage cheese onto the center of the turkey ham slices.
- Carefully fold the sides of the lettuce leaf over the filling.
- Roll the lettuce leaf from the bottom end upwards to form a secure wrap.
- You can cut the wrap in half if desired or leave it whole.
- Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for a quick, nutritious snack later.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, crisp lettuce leaves to ensure the wraps hold together well and provide a satisfying crunch.
- For added flavor, consider seasoning the cottage cheese with a pinch of black pepper or adding a few herbs like chopped parsley or chives.
- Feel free to add other ingredients such as slices of cucumber, bell peppers, or a few avocado slices for extra texture and nutrients.
- If preparing ahead of time, keep the wraps refrigerated and wrap them tightly in plastic wrap to maintain freshness.
- Experiment with different types of lettuce like romaine or butter lettuce to see which you prefer.
These turkey ham and cottage cheese lettuce wraps offer a delightful combination of flavors and textures, making them a perfect choice for a quick and healthy meal.
