Directions
I love cottage cheese but dont always want to top it with fruit. These Savory Cottage Cheese Bowls with cucumbers, bell pepper, and tomatoes are a great solution. Perfect for breakfast or snack, they are an easy way to get more protein in your day. If youre not a fan of the taste of cottage cheese, you can use yogurt instead. For more recipes that use cottage cheese, see my High Protein Bread and Strawberry Protein Smoothie.,Cottage cheese is a great, healthy breakfast. While low in carbs and sugar, its very high in protein. A one-cup serving can have more than 25 grams of protein! Cottage cheese is also a good source of calcium, phosphorous, vitamin B12, and riboflavin.,I fill this cottage cheese breakfast bowl with the colorful vegetables listed below and then top with pistachios for extra protein and crunch:,Persian cucumbers,Bell pepper,Grape tomatoes,Chives or scallion greens,Leftover roasted veggies,Use regular cucumbers or English cucumbers if you cant find Persian.,Sub yellow or orange bell pepper instead of red.,Swap grape tomatoes for cherry tomatoes.,Replace pistachios with pine nuts or almonds if you prefer.,Use Greek yogurt if youre not a cottage-cheese fan.
