Tami’s notes
This recipe can be tailored to anyone’s dietary preferences. If you want a creamier base, you can add more cottage cheese. If you love spice, you can add more buffalo sauce. I personally add more cottage cheese on days I’m feeling a little bit saucier!

4 oz of chicken divided into 4 servings results in 1 oz per serving. How does that come out to 51 g of protein?
Hi Nancy! Thanks for catching that. It should be 4 oz. per wrap, so 16 oz. total, if you’re planning to make 4.
What size tortillas are you using? The ones in the photo look bigger than the no-carb ones I usually see.
Hi Dee! I used the burrito sized wraps.

I used 99% fat free ground turkey and this was more flavorful & filling than I expected. Super quick & easy too!
