Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Full-Fat Cottage Cheese (226g)
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1/4 cup Almond Flour (28g), finely sifted
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil (15ml), or butter, for the skillet
  • 1 pinch Salt and Black Pepper to taste
  • 1 5oz can Flaky Tuna (142g), drained well
  • 1/4 cup Mayonnaise (58g)
  • 1 handful Fresh Spinach
  • 1/4 Small Red Onion thinly sliced

Equipment

  • 1 High-speed blender
  • 1 10-inch Non-stick Skillet
  • 1 Flexible Spatula

Method
 

  1. In a high-speed blender, combine cottage cheese, eggs, almond flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Blend on high for 30-45 seconds until the batter is completely smooth and no curds remain.
  2. Heat olive oil in a 10-inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour the batter into the center and spread into an 8-9 inch circle. Cook for 4-6 minutes, until the edges are dry and bubbles form. Flip carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until golden-brown on both sides.
  3. While the flatbread cooks, mix the drained tuna and mayonnaise in a small bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  4. Slide the warm flatbread onto a plate. Layer spinach, tuna salad, and sliced red onion on one half. Fold the other half over and serve immediately.

Notes

Don't Skip the Blender: Hand-mixing will not work for this recipe. Blending is the only way to achieve the necessary smooth texture for a bread-like result.
Medium Heat is Key: High heat will burn the outside before the inside is cooked through. Be patient and allow the medium heat to cook the flatbread evenly.
Let It Cool Slightly: Allow the flatbread to cool for just a minute before filling and folding. This helps it gain a bit more structure and prevents it from tearing.
