Ingredients
- 2 slices whole grain bread
- ½ cup low-fat cottage cheese
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ avocado sliced
- Black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place the whole grain bread slices in a toaster or toaster oven and toast until golden brown and crisp enough to support the toppings without becoming soggy.
- While the bread is toasting, measure ½ cup of low-fat cottage cheese. If you prefer a smoother consistency, blend the cottage cheese briefly until creamy.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the eggs according to your preferred doneness. For fried eggs, cook until the whites are fully set and the yolks reach your desired consistency. For scrambled eggs, whisk the eggs first and cook gently while stirring until soft and fluffy.
- While the eggs are cooking, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice ¼ avocado into thin, even pieces.
- Once the toast is ready, spread the cottage cheese evenly over both slices, creating a creamy, protein-rich base.
- Divide the cooked eggs between the two toast slices, placing them directly over the cottage cheese.
- Arrange the avocado slices evenly on top of the eggs to provide healthy fats and a buttery texture.
- Finish with freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Add additional seasonings such as red pepper flakes or everything bagel seasoning if desired.
- Serve immediately while the toast remains crisp and the eggs are warm for the best flavor and texture.
