- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Pinch of salt (optional, to taste)
- Black pepper (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it to prevent sticking. - Blend the mixture
Add the cottage cheese, eggs, Parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to a blender or food processor. Blend for 45–60 seconds until completely smooth and silky. - Spread evenly
Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and gently spread it into an even rectangle, about ¼ inch thick. This ensures the wrap stays flexible without becoming brittle. - Bake until set
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until lightly golden and firm to the touch. The surface should feel dry but still slightly springy. - Cool completely
Remove from the oven and allow the wrap to cool completely on the tray. This step is crucial for clean removal and perfect texture. - Lift and slice
Carefully peel the wrap from the parchment paper and slice into two large wraps or smaller portions as desired. - Fill and roll
Add your favorite fillings, roll gently, and enjoy immediately or wrap for later.
