Ingredients
- 250 gram cottage cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Pinch of salt
- 200 gram cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 1 medium avocado, sliced

Preparation method
This flatbread is a game-changer for quick, healthy meals! It comes together in just a few simple steps, making healthy eating totally effortless and fun.
- In a medium bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well until everything is incorporated and the mixture is relatively smooth (a few lumps are okay!).
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour half of the cottage cheese mixture into the pan, spreading it out to form a flatbread shape, about 1 cm thick.
- Cook for 5-7 minutes on one side until golden brown and set. Carefully flip the flatbread and cook for another 3-5 minutes on the second side until also golden and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining mixture for the second flatbread.
- Once both flatbreads are cooked, transfer them to plates. Top each flatbread generously with shredded chicken, sliced avocado, fresh spinach or mixed greens, and halved cherry tomatoes.
- If desired, add a drizzle of your favorite light dressing or hot sauce for an extra kick. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, protein-packed meal!
