Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole-grain bread
- 1 cup Cottage cheese
- 1 large Tomato
- 6 leaves Fresh basil leaves
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 cup Arugula (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Toast the whole-grain bread slices in a toaster or on a pan until golden brown and slightly crisp.
Step 2
While the bread is toasting, prepare the tomato by slicing it into thin, even rounds.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the cottage cheese with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Step 4
Once the bread slices are toasted, drizzle a small amount of olive oil over one side of each slice for added flavor.
Step 5
Spread about two tablespoons of the seasoned cottage cheese onto two of the bread slices, creating a thick, even layer.
Step 6
Layer the tomato slices on top of the cottage cheese. Divide them evenly between the two sandwiches.
Step 7
Place three basil leaves on top of the tomatoes for each sandwich. For an optional twist, add a handful of arugula for extra greens and a peppery bite.
Step 8
Top each sandwich with the remaining bread slices, olive oil side facing inward to seal in the flavor.
Step 9
Cut the sandwiches in half diagonally (optional) and serve immediately. Enjoy your Awesome Cottage Cheese Tomato Sandwich!
