Smoked Salmon Cottage Cheese Toast.
This smoked salmon cottage cheese toast is my favorite breakfast! Toasty sourdough, cottage cheese, hot honey, everything bagel seasoning, smoked salmon and pickled onions make up this incredibly satisfying, crunchy and delicious dish.
My ideal breakfast is here for you today.
Crunchy, toasted sourdough bread, topped with cottage cheese, hot honey, everything bagel seasoning, smoked salmon, pickled onions and lots of peppery arugula.
It’s kind of like a salad on a piece of toast. And I am here for it!
I’m spilling all the secrets today… because this toast is what I eat almost every day. A version of it, at least.
Okay, so you may remember a few years ago when I fell in love with the combo of cottage cheese on sourdough toast, topped with honey and chili crunch?
I LOVE this breakfast. And not only for breakfast. A snack. Even dinner – it is so delicious. And it checks all the boxes.
Super satisfying, savory and sweet, lots of texture.
Totally my kind of meal.
This meal is almost exclusively what got me into loving cottage cheese.
I had started to enjoy it a few years ago, but then when I started putting it on toast? Game over for me. Obsessed. Had to have a few containers in my fridge at all times.
P.S. it also helped that I discovered good culture cottage cheese at this time. It’s seriously the BEST (not sponsored, ha!) and the only one I will buy. It’s also probably Jordan’s favorite food, eaten completely plain, because their cottage cheese is top notch.
These days, I ADORE cottage cheese. I will happily eat it in a savory or sweet manner. Though if I had to choose, I’d pick savory.
This is how I make it!
First, I toast sourdough bread and we all know I like it TOASTED. None of that warm bread, no thank you. I want it to be one shade away from burnt.
Next, I top the toast with a few spoonfuls of cottage cheese. I sprinkle on some everything bagel seasoning. If I don’t use the everything season, I will use sea salt or something similar. Any seasoning I love!
I also do a drizzle of hot honey right here. Just a little one! Because I can’t stop with the savory + sweet combo.
Then, a handful of arugula. I don’t dress this or anything – the cottage cheese and hot honey are enough to make it taste incredible.
Next, some slices of smoked salmon. Maybe another little sprinkle of everything seasoning.
Finally, a few pickled onions!
Of course, you can add anything else on there that you love. Some dill. A spritz of lemon. Cucumbers even! Maybe a slice of tomato..
Make it your own.
There is no real recipe. The amount of toppings depends on how much you love the ingredients!
This meal is SO incredibly filling. I mean – hours on end. It fills me up, is very balanced and not to mention, tastes amazing.
