Featuring toasted rustic sourdough bread topped with creamy cottage cheese, mashed avocado, and juicy cherry tomatoes, it’s seasoned with dried oregano and garnished with fresh parsley for a burst of fresh flavor.


Ingredients

Scale

Bread

  • 2 slices rustic sourdough or whole grain bread

Toppings

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 46 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Dried oregano or Italian seasoning, to taste
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: Drizzle of olive oil or chili flakes

Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped


Instructions

  1. Toast the bread: Toast the bread slices until they are golden brown and crispy to provide a sturdy and flavorful base for the toppings.
  2. Spread cottage cheese: Evenly spread one half cup of cottage cheese over each slice of toasted bread to add a creamy, protein-rich layer.
  3. Mash avocado and season: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocado and season it with salt and black pepper to taste. Spread this creamy avocado layer evenly on top of the cottage cheese.
  4. Add cherry tomatoes and seasoning: Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes over the avocado spread. Sprinkle dried oregano or Italian seasoning over the top to add an herby flavor dimension.
  5. Optional flavor boost: For an extra burst of flavor, drizzle some olive oil or sprinkle chili flakes over the assembled toast before serving.
  6. Garnish and serve: Finally, garnish each toast with freshly chopped parsley to enhance freshness and presentation. Serve immediately to enjoy the toast at its crisp best.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, consider adding toasted seeds or nuts on top.
  • Use whole grain or gluten-free bread if desired for dietary preferences.
  • Adjust seasoning and chili flakes according to your spice tolerance.
  • Consume immediately after preparing to enjoy optimal texture and flavor.
  • Substitute fresh herbs like basil or cilantro for variety if preferred.
