This Turkey Club Cottage Cheese Wrap is one of my favorite quick and nourishing meals. It’s loaded with protein, easy to make, and so satisfying. Instead of using traditional bread, I blend cottage cheese into a soft, golden wrap that holds together beautifully and adds a creamy richness. With layers of fresh fillings like turkey, crisp romaine, and creamy avocado, it’s the kind of wrap I can enjoy for lunch or dinner without feeling weighed down.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love how this recipe combines simple ingredients into something that feels both fresh and filling. The cottage cheese wrap is a clever twist—it’s gluten-free, high in protein, and surprisingly easy to make. The filling reminds me of a classic club sandwich, but it’s lighter and fresher. It’s also customizable depending on what I have in the fridge, which makes it perfect for busy days or meal prepping.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
1 1/4 cups whole-milk cottage cheese
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric (optional)
Pinch kosher salt, depending on how salty the cottage cheese is
1 large egg

Filling:
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon pesto (homemade or store-bought)
3 to 4 slices deli turkey
2 leaves romaine, thinly sliced into ribbons
1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
1/2 avocado, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced

Directions

I preheat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray.
In a blender, I combine the cottage cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, turmeric (if I’m using it), salt, and egg. I blend everything until it’s smooth.
I pour the mixture into the skillet, spreading it out evenly. I cook it for 2 to 3 minutes, until the edges start to set.
I gently flip the wrap and cook it for another 2 to 3 minutes until it’s golden and fully cooked. Then I transfer it to a plate to cool slightly.
In a small bowl, I mix the mayonnaise and pesto, then spread it over the cooled wrap.
I layer the turkey, romaine, tomato, and avocado on top.
Finally, I roll the wrap tightly, slice it in half, and it’s ready to serve.

Variations

Sometimes I switch up the deli turkey with shredded chicken or slices of roast beef. I’ve also swapped the mayo-pesto spread with hummus or mashed avocado for a different flavor. If I want more crunch, I add shredded carrots or sliced cucumbers. It’s easy to make this wrap fit whatever I’m in the mood for.

Storage/Reheating

If I want to prep ahead, I make the cottage cheese wrap and store it in the fridge, separated from the fillings. I keep the wrap in an airtight container and the fillings in another. When I’m ready to eat, I just assemble everything. I don’t recommend reheating the filled wrap, but the wrap itself can be gently warmed in a skillet if needed.

FAQs

Can I use low-fat cottage cheese?

I can, but I’ve found that whole-milk cottage cheese gives the best texture and holds together better when cooked.

What’s the purpose of the turmeric?

The turmeric is optional—I add it for color and a subtle earthy flavor, but it’s not essential. I often leave it out.

Can I make the wrap without a blender?

For the smoothest texture, I use a blender, but a food processor works too. If I skip blending, the wrap won’t cook as evenly.

Can I double the recipe?

Yes, I often double or triple the mixture to make several wraps. I cook each one separately so they set properly in the pan.

How do I keep the wrap from breaking?

Letting the wrap cool slightly before filling helps prevent tears. I also avoid overfilling, which makes rolling easier.

Conclusion

This Turkey Club Cottage Cheese Wrap is one of those meals I can rely on when I want something wholesome, fast, and delicious.
