Description
Dill Ranch Cottage Cheese Chicken Wraps are a high-protein, quick-to-assemble lunch that tastes like deli-style chicken salad but with a lighter, healthier twist. Creamy cottage cheese, tangy chopped dill pickles, zesty ranch seasoning, and lemon marry with shredded chicken to create a crave-worthy filling that’s perfect for meal prep, lunch boxes, or on-the-go dinners. These wraps deliver crunchy, creamy, and tangy flavors in every bite and are ideal for anyone seeking a flavorful, protein-forward meal that’s fast to make.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked, shredded chicken
- 1/2 cup small-curd cottage cheese
- 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning
- 2 tablespoons chopped dill pickles
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 large tortillas (whole wheat, low-carb or your choice)
- Optional: chopped celery, green onions, or a tablespoon Greek yogurt
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine cottage cheese, ranch seasoning, lemon juice, and chopped dill pickles; stir until smooth and creamy.
- Fold in the shredded chicken and mix until all pieces are evenly coated; season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Lay tortillas flat and divide the chicken mixture evenly down the center of each tortilla.
- Fold the sides in and roll tightly from the bottom up to create snug wraps.
- Optional: heat a dry skillet over medium and toast each wrap 1-2 minutes per side until lightly browned.
- Slice in half diagonally and serve immediately or wrap tightly for on-the-go lunches.
Notes
- Use small-curd cottage cheese or briefly pulse in a food processor for a smoother texture.
- If cottage cheese is watery, drain a little to prevent soggy tortillas.
- Substitute Greek yogurt for cottage cheese for a tangier, smoother filling.
- For extra crunch add chopped celery or green apple.
- To make low-carb, use large lettuce leaves or a low-carb tortilla.
