Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cottage Cheese Paste

Start by making the flavourful cottage cheese paste that will be the heart of your omelette wrap.

  • Place the cottage cheese, fresh watercress, and the peel (or zest) of one lemon in a high-sided bowl or food processor.

  • Use a hand blender or food processor to puree the ingredients until a smooth paste forms. This mixture will add a zesty and creamy kick to your omelette wrap.

2. Beat the Eggs

  • In a separate bowl, beat the six large eggs until well combined.

  • Add the cream and mixed herbs to the beaten eggs and stir them in thoroughly. This mixture will give your omelette a creamy and herby flavour.

3. Cook the Omelettes

  • Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp of coconut oil, olive oil or butter - totally up to you.

  • Pour a quarter of the egg mixture into the pan and cook it for about 2 minutes, or until the egg solidifies.

  • Carefully flip the omelette and cook the other side for an additional 30 seconds, or until it's fully cooked. Repeat this process with the remaining egg mixture, using 1 tsp of coconut oil for each omelette.


4. Assemble the Omelette Wraps

  • Once your omelettes are ready, remove them from the pan and set them aside.

  • Spread the prepared cottage cheese paste over each omelette, ensuring an even distribution.

  • Sprinkle the chopped smoked salmon on top of the cottage cheese paste. The smoky and savoury salmon perfectly complements the creamy cottage cheese and herb-infused eggs.

5. Roll and Serve

  • To complete your omelette wraps, carefully roll them up like burritos, tucking in the sides as you go.

  • Using a sharp knife, cut each rolled omelette wrap in half to create two satisfying portions.

Now you're ready to enjoy your low-carb, high-protein omelette wrap! The combination of the zesty cottage cheese paste, creamy eggs, and the savoury smoked salmon creates a flavour explosion that will make your taste buds dance.


Whether you're looking for a delicious breakfast treat or a quick and healthy brunch option, this recipe is a winner.
