Make this quick, satisfying toast combining creamy avocado and high-protein cottage cheese for a balanced breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices whole grain bread
  • 1/2 ripe avocado
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese (4% milkfat recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon everything bagel seasoning (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Toast the bread slices until they reach your preferred level of crispness.
  2. While the bread toasts, prepare the avocado. Scoop the avocado half into a small bowl.
  3. Add the lemon juice, salt, and pepper to the avocado. Mash lightly with a fork until mostly smooth but still slightly chunky.
  4. Spread the mashed avocado evenly over the two slices of warm toast.
  5. Spoon the cottage cheese over the avocado layer on each slice. Distribute it evenly.
  6. Sprinkle the red pepper flakes, if using, over the cottage cheese.
  7. Finish by sprinkling the everything bagel seasoning over the top of both toasts.
  8. Serve immediately for a quick high protein toast topping.

Notes

  • For a creamier texture, blend the cottage cheese briefly before spreading.
  • Add thinly sliced radish or cucumber for extra crunch and freshness.
  • Substitute everything bagel seasoning with smoked paprika and fresh dill for a different flavor profile.
  • This recipe works well for meal prep toast ideas if you store the components separately and assemble just before eating.
