- Total Time: 10 minutes
- Diet: Vegetarian
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices of sourdough or whole-grain bread
- 1/2 cup small-curd cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
- 1/2 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil (optional for savory)
- A pinch of sea salt and black pepper
- Optional Sweet Toppings: Sliced strawberries, honey drizzle, and cinnamon
- Optional Savory Toppings: Sliced cucumber, radish, and Everything Bagel seasoning
Instructions
- Place your bread slices in a toaster or under a broiler. Toast until they are golden brown and firm. You want the bread to be sturdy enough to hold the weight of the cottage cheese without becoming soggy too quickly.
- If you prefer a smoother texture, you can quickly pulse the cottage cheese in a small blender for 30 seconds to create “whipped” cottage cheese. Otherwise, simply use it straight from the container for a traditional texture.
- Spread a generous layer of cottage cheese evenly across each slice of toast. Ensure you reach all the way to the edges so every bite is flavorful.
- Sprinkle a small pinch of salt over the cheese to enhance the flavor. Add your chosen toppings, such as fresh fruit for a sweet version or sliced vegetables and seeds for a savory version. Finish with a drizzle of honey or olive oil if desired.
