Directions:
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and coat with 1/2 tablespoon of the butter.
Using a small food processor or hand mixer, combine the cottage cheese, egg, and seasoning mix, and blend until smooth. Pour onto the prepared parchment, using a spatula to gently spread the mixture towards the edges, creating a consistent, thin rectangular layer without any holes. Bake for 25 minutes, until the edges are golden and the wrap can be easily lifted from the paper. Remove from the oven, spread 1/2 tablespoon butter over to melt, then sprinkle one side with the Cheddar cheese.
While the wrap cools, prepare the filling by melting the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a pan over medium-low heat. Whisk together the eggs, whole milk, and kosher salt, and pour into the melted butter. Allow to cook, undisturbed, for 2-3 minutes, then gently fold the egg together and cover the pan to finish cooking the eggs, another 2-3 minutes.
Layer the prepared eggs over the melted cheese on the wrap, then top with the chives, bacon, avocado, and fresh arugula. Gently fold the close edge of the wrap over the fillings, then roll to the far edge–the dough will be delicate, so take care to avoid tears. Slice in half and serve with your favorite hot sauce.

Always seek the advice of your physician, registered dietitian, or a qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical or health condition, nutrition needs or diet.

High Protein
These categories are not complete meal plans and do not guarantee any specific health outcome. They are simply a way of organizing recipes by approximate macronutrient pattern.
For the purposes of recipe classification, "high protein" is operationally defined as providing ≥20% of the Daily Value (DV) for protein per serving, as established by the (2020-2025) Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
Recipes bearing the high-protein designation are provided solely for general dietary planning purposes. These recipes are not intended to serve as medical nutrition therapy, nor should they be used to adjust pharmacological interventions or substitute for individualized clinical recommendations from qualified healthcare professionals.
Keto-Friendly

Eating pattern based on 2000 kcals.
17g carbs, 56g fat, 25g protein per meal + 6.25g fiber*, 2300mg sodium daily.
This pattern uses very low carbohydrate intake (17g) and higher fat (56g) to align with ketogenic-style eating patterns, in which the body may shift from primarily using carbohydrates to using fat for energy. Some people, under guidance from their healthcare providers, choose ketogenic-style eating patterns as part of their approach to managing weight or blood sugar. Whether this type of pattern is appropriate for you depends on your individual health needs and should be discussed with your healthcare team. *Please note: the Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends a minimum of 25 g/fiber per day for traditional intake. Typical intakes are much lower with a ketogenic eating pattern (about 6.25 g per day) . This type of pattern should be followed only under the supervision of a healthcare provider or registered dietitian, especially if you have existing medical conditions. Recipes labeled Keto-Friendly are intended for general menu planning only and are not designed to change your medication dose or replace personalized advice from your healthcare team.
