Start by slicing the whole wheat bagel in half horizontally to create two open-faced halves.
Toast the bagel halves in a toaster or under a broiler until they are golden brown, approximately 2 minutes.
While the bagel is toasting, slice the tomato into thin slices.
Once the bagel halves are toasted, spread 50 grams of low fat cottage cheese on each half, evenly covering the surfaces.
Top each cottage cheese-covered bagel half with the fresh tomato slices, dividing them equally.
Sprinkle the fresh basil leaves on top of the tomato slices. You can tear the leaves for more flavor distribution if desired.
Season both halves with a pinch of salt and black pepper to your taste preference.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, low-fat cottage cheese bagel as a delightful start to your day!
