A quick and nourishing protein toast featuring creamy cottage cheese, diced avocado with a crunchy twist, and a subtle hint of pink Himalayan salt. Perfect for a healthy breakfast or brunch that’s easy to prepare and packed with flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 thick slice multigrain bread (about 1 inch thick)
  • ½ cup (120 g) small-curd cottage cheese
  • ½ ripe avocado, diced
  • ¼ teaspoon pink Himalayan salt, divided
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon toasted seeds (sunflower or pumpkin), optional
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

  1. Toast one thick slice of multigrain bread until golden and crisp, about 3-5 minutes. If using a skillet, lightly brush the bread with olive oil before toasting.
  2. In a small bowl, combine diced avocado with 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, ⅛ teaspoon pink Himalayan salt, and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Gently toss to coat, then add toasted seeds if using.
  3. Spread ½ cup small-curd cottage cheese evenly over the warm toast.
  4. Spoon the avocado mixture over the cottage cheese layer, spreading to cover the toast.
  5. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ teaspoon pink Himalayan salt on top.
  6. Drizzle about 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil over the assembled toast.
  7. Serve immediately for best texture and freshness.

Notes

If avocado browns quickly, spritz with lemon juice before assembling. Drain watery cottage cheese on paper towel to avoid soggy toast. Toast seeds over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Use cast iron skillet for extra crispy bread if desired.
