Pour the blended mixture over the crumbled tofu and stir to combine thoroughly. Ensure the mixture is evenly coated. Adjust the salt according to taste.
Chop fresh chives finely and fold them into the vegan cottage cheese mixture to add flavor and color.
Slice cherry tomatoes in half and roughly chop basil leaves.
Slice each bagel in half and toast them until golden brown.
Spread a generous amount of vegan cottage cheese on each toasted bagel half.
Top with sliced cherry tomatoes and a sprinkle of fresh basil leaves.
Finish with a crack of black pepper for an added touch of spice.
Serve the Vegan Cottage Cheese Bagels immediately and enjoy a fresh, savory meal!
