Ingredients
Scale
Bread and Butter
- 2 slices sourdough bread (2.5 oz / 50–60 grams each)
- 1–2 teaspoons salted butter
Avocado and Toppings
- ½–⅔ large avocado (sliced, about ¼ per toast)
- 4 oz cottage cheese (about 110 grams, high-protein recommended)
- 2 teaspoons Everything But The Bagel seasoning
- 8 cherry tomatoes (sliced)
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives or green onions
- Cracked black pepper, to taste
- Optional: sea salt (if your Everything But The Bagel seasoning isn’t salted)
Instructions
- Toast the Bread: Toast the sourdough slices until golden and crisp. Immediately spread the salted butter over the warm toast to let it melt and infuse flavor.
- Add Avocado Slices: Evenly distribute ¼ to ⅓ of the sliced avocado on each buttered toast slice, providing a creamy base layer.
- Spoon Cottage Cheese: Add 2–3 tablespoons (approximately 55 grams) of cottage cheese on top of the avocado on each slice, adding protein and creaminess.
- Season and Add Toppings: Sprinkle about ½ teaspoon of Everything But The Bagel seasoning over the cottage cheese. Top with chopped chives and sliced cherry tomatoes evenly.
- Final Touches: Finish with another pinch of Everything But The Bagel seasoning, extra chives, and freshly cracked black pepper. If your seasoning mix lacks salt, add a small pinch of sea salt to taste.
Notes
- This avocado toast variation is elevated with cottage cheese and fresh cherry tomatoes, offering extra protein and vibrant flavor.
- Use high-protein cottage cheese for added nutritional benefits and a creamier texture.
- Everything But The Bagel seasoning adds a savory, garlicky crunch—adjust amounts to your taste preference.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture, as the toast can become soggy if left too long.
- For a dairy-free alternative, swap cottage cheese with a plant-based ricotta or tofu-based spread.
