Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 2 slices whole grain bread
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs

Flavorings & Cooking

  • 1–2 teaspoons sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon butter or olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Garnishes & Add-ins

  • Fresh herbs (chives, cilantro, or parsley), chopped
  • Avocado slices or spread
  • Sliced tomatoes, spinach, or bell peppers
  • Smoked salmon or hemp seeds for extra protein

Instructions

  1. Toast Your Bread: Start by toasting your whole grain bread slices until they are golden and crispy to create a sturdy, crunchy base that will hold the toppings without becoming soggy.
  2. Prepare the Eggs: Cook the eggs to your preference—fried, scrambled, or poached. For an extra creamy texture, aim for slightly runny yolks if frying or poaching. Use butter or olive oil to cook the eggs to golden perfection and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Spread Cottage Cheese: Generously spread the cottage cheese over the warm toasted bread. The tangy creaminess of the cottage cheese balances perfectly with the spicy sriracha.
  4. Assemble the Toast: Place the cooked eggs on top of the cottage cheese layer. Drizzle sriracha sauce over the eggs to your desired spice level.
  5. Add Finishing Touches: Season with additional salt and pepper if needed. Sprinkle freshly chopped herbs on top for brightness and a pop of color. Optionally, add avocado slices, veggies, or other toppings as desired.

Notes

  • Use fresh, high-quality eggs for the best taste and texture.
  • Toast the bread thoroughly for optimal crunch that contrasts with creamy toppings.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha gradually to control spice intensity.
  • If your cottage cheese is watery, drain it briefly to prevent soggy toast.
  • Try alternative breads like sourdough or rye for different flavor profiles.
  • Store toast and toppings separately if preparing ahead to maintain freshness and texture.
  • Reheat eggs gently to avoid rubbery texture, and toast bread again briefly before assembling.
