📅 Time-Saving Tips
🥗 Batch Prep Toppings – Pre-cook bacon, crispy shallots, and eggs at the start of the week.
🔧 Blend Cottage Cheese – If you’re not a fan of the texture, toss it in the blender for a whipped, ricotta-like spread.
🍞 Use Sturdy Bread – Ezekiel, sourdough, or rye hold up well under heavy toppings.
🫶 Pro Tips for Ultimate Toast
- ✨ Garnish Matters: A sprinkle of herbs, chili flakes, or citrus zest can elevate everything.
- ☕ Pair It Right: Go savory with coffee or matcha. Sweet toast? Pair with iced espresso or almond milk latte.
- ❄️ Cool It Down: Let the toast cool slightly before adding cottage cheese so it doesn’t get watery.
🌟 Customize It Your Way
- 🥓 Low-Carb: Use keto bread or rice cakes.
- 🧃 Nut-Free: Swap PB with seed butter or yogurt drizzle.
- 🍇 Seasonal: Add roasted squash or cranberry compote in fall.
- 🍏 Fresh Fruit: Layer banana slices, blueberries, or figs on sweet toast.
