Avocado Cottage Cheese Toast

This Avocado Cottage Cheese Toast is a well balanced snack that’s high in protein, healthy fats and fibre! It is one of my favourite ways to enjoy cottage cheese and I can’t wait for you to try it!

If you’re looking for a healthy meal that’s ready in less than 5 minutes, you need to try this variation of the millennial favourite, avocado toast.

 

Ingredients needed

All you need for this Avocado Cottage Cheese Toast is:

• Whole grain bread
  • You can use whatever bread you have available. Whole grain toast is just a higher fibre option, which can help support digestion, feelings of fullness and overall health.
• Avocado
  • It’s best to use a fairly ripe avocado so that it’s easily spreadable on the toast.
• Cottage cheese
  • I recommend using a 1-2% milk fat (M.F.) cottage cheese. This makes it a bit creamier and the extra fat can help us absorb fat soluble vitamins better!
• Everything Bagel Seasoning
  • To make your own, check out this recipe.
• Salt and black pepper
  • If the Everything Bagel Seasoning is flavourful enough, you can forego the extra salt and pepper.

 

Can you use white bread for avocado toast?

You can absolutely use white bread for avocado toast. I recommend using a whole grain bread in this recipe because it tends to provide more fibre, which keeps us fuller for longer. However, if you prefer white bread or if that’s all you have available, it will still work perfectly in this recipe!

Do avocado and cottage cheese go together?

This combination of avocado and cottage cheese, with the help of some flavourful seasonings, is one of my favourite snacks of all time.

I originally made it because I was running low on other ingredients and these were all I had. Thankfully, it ended up being a successful recipe!

Depending on your personal preference, you may want to add some extra toppings or seasonings to make this meal work for you! I have many suggestions below.
