Sometimes it is best just to keep it simple. This Cottage Cheese Toast with a Poached Egg may be simple but it is also nutritious and super tasty! Fresh flavors come together in this far from basic toast.
This is the style I prefer to eat once the weather warms up in Spring and all through Summer.
Ingredient Options:
- Skip roasting the tomatoes and use fresh sliced cherry tomatoes instead.
- Sliced hard boiled egg can be swapped for the poached egg.
- Use your favorite sliced bread for toast.
- Add your favorite hot sauce or red chili flakes for some heat.
