Ingredients

(no strict measurements — adjust to taste)

  • Low-carb flatbreads or pitas
  • Blended cottage cheese (smooth, ricotta-style)
  • Crumbled feta cheese
  • Cooked chicken breast (optional, sliced or shredded)
  • Romaine lettuce, chopped
  • Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Cucumber, diced
  • Red onion, thinly sliced
  • Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
  • Olive oil
  • Fresh lemon juice
  • Dried oregano
  • Salt and black pepper

How to Make It

  1. Prepare the Creamy Base:
    In a blender or food processor, blend cottage cheese until smooth and creamy. Transfer to a bowl and stir in crumbled feta. This creates a thick, tangy spread similar to ricotta with extra protein and flavor.
  2. Assemble the Salad:
    In a large bowl, combine chopped romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and Kalamata olives. Drizzle with olive oil, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, and sprinkle with oregano, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
  3. Warm the Flatbreads:
    Lightly warm flatbreads or pitas in a dry skillet or oven until soft and pliable.
  4. Assemble the Flatbreads:
    Spread a generous layer of the cottage cheese–feta mixture over each flatbread. Top with a scoop of the Greek salad mixture and add sliced cooked chicken if desired.
  5. Serve:
    Fold or roll the flatbreads and enjoy immediately. They’re fresh, filling, and perfect for a quick Mediterranean-style meal.
