Notes/Advice:

  • Additions/Subtractions:
    • Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey, or omit it completely if you prefer a more savory bite.
    • If your cottage cheese is very watery, drain it slightly to avoid making the toast soggy.
    • Experiment with different berries based on what's in season—blackberries and cherries also work well.
