Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp using a toaster or in a dry skillet over medium heat.

Spread ¼ cup of cottage cheese onto each slice of toast.
Top with the mashed avocado.

Step 5: Serve
Serve immediately while the toast is still warm and crisp.
Enjoy as an open-faced sandwich or cut into halves for easy snacking.

Notes

Use Ripe Avocados – Soft but not mushy, with no brown spots.
Choose Thick Bread – A hearty slice holds up well under creamy toppings.
Full-Fat Cottage Cheese – Offers the best flavor and texture for this toast.
Balance Flavors – Use acidic elements (like lemon or pickled onions) to cut through the richness.
Add a Crunch – Seeds or toasted nuts give texture and contrast.
