Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Whole grain bread slices
- 100 grams Cottage cheese
- 1 medium Tomato
- 1 teaspoon Extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 0.5 clove Garlic (optional)
Instructions
Begin by toasting the two slices of whole grain bread in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown and crisp.
While the bread is toasting, slice the tomato into thin, round slices. If you like, lightly season the tomato slices with a pinch of salt to bring out the flavor.
If you're using garlic, rub the cut side of half a garlic clove over the toasted bread for an extra layer of flavor.
Spread the cottage cheese evenly over the toasted bread slices, dividing it equally between the two pieces.
Lay the tomato slices on top of the cottage cheese, arranging them neatly.
Drizzle 1 teaspoon of olive oil over the tomatoes on both slices of toast.
Sprinkle the toasts with a pinch of salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Garnish each toast with a fresh basil leaf for a burst of color and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your quick, nutritious cottage cheese and tomato toast.
