Method
 

  1. Place the whole grain or sourdough slices in a toaster. Toast until golden brown and slightly crunchy. Thick-cut slices work best for holding toppings.
  2. While the toast is still warm, spread ¼ cup cottage cheese evenly over each slice.
  3. Add a small pinch of sea salt for flavor balance.
  4. For Sweet Cottage Cheese Toast:
    Top with banana, berries, or apple slices. Drizzle honey and sprinkle cinnamon if desired.
    For Savory Cottage Cheese Toast:
    Add mashed avocado, scrambled egg, or shredded cheese. Season with black pepper.
  5. Serve warm for best texture and flavor.
