Ingredients
Scale
Bread
- 2 slices of bread (your choice, preferably whole grain or sourdough)
Toppings
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese (about 120g)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Toast Bread: Toast the bread slices until they turn golden brown and become crisp. This step ensures a sturdy base that holds the toppings without getting soggy.
- Spread Cottage Cheese: Generously spread the cottage cheese evenly over the warm toasted bread to allow it to soften slightly and meld with the toast.
- Drizzle Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle olive oil over the cottage cheese to add richness and enhance flavor.
- Season and Serve: Sprinkle salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, then serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of warm toast and cool cottage cheese.

- Use thick-cut bread for a heartier snack.
- Optional toppings such as sliced tomatoes or cucumber can add freshness.
- Serve immediately to maintain toast crispness.
