Instructions

Step 1

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. In a medium bowl, combine cottage cheese and flour. Stir until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour; if too dry, add a splash of milk.

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a 6-inch round, about 1/4-inch thick.
