Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- ½ medium avocado
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Everything but the Bagel seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 slices sourdough bread (or your favorite bread)
Optional Toppings
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional for topping)
- Hot honey or balsamic glaze (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Avocado Mixture: Mash the avocado half in a small bowl until smooth. Add the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and Everything but the Bagel seasoning. Mix everything together thoroughly to combine the flavors and create a creamy spread.
- Toast the Bread: Toast your choice of bread slices until golden and crisp. This provides a sturdy base and adds a satisfying crunch to the toast.
- Assemble the Toast: Spread the avocado mixture evenly over the toasted bread slices. Then, spoon the cottage cheese generously on top of the avocado layer to add creaminess and protein.
- Add Finishing Touches: Drizzle honey, hot honey, or balsamic glaze over the cottage cheese for a hint of sweetness and extra flavor. Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of Everything but the Bagel seasoning to enhance the taste and texture.
Notes
- Mash the avocado first before spreading it on the toast to achieve a smooth, creamy texture and prevent squishing the bread.
- Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best fresh and vibrant flavor; bottled lemon juice lacks brightness.
- Ensure the avocado is ripe to get a creamy consistency and the best taste.
