How to Store Cottage Cheese Wraps
If you aren’t devouring them all in one sitting (good luck with that!), store your wraps in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- You can also freeze them for up to 1 month. Just stack them between sheets of parchment paper to keep them from sticking together.
- To reheat, pop them in a skillet or microwave, but I’d suggest the skillet for that perfect crispy touch!
Tips to Make Cottage Cheese Wraps
- Timing is key: Preheat your skillet for an even cook. You don’t want a soggy bottom!
- Protein Swap: Want a vegan version? Sub the eggs with a flaxseed mix (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal combined with 3 tablespoons water) for that binding magic.
- Texture tip: Use a high-speed blender for a super-smooth batter—lumps are no friend here!
