Instructions

Prepare the avocado mixture: Mash the avocado half in a small bowl until creamy. Add the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and Everything Bagel seasoning to the mashed avocado, and mix well to combine all the flavors evenly.
Toast the bread: Toast two slices of your preferred bread, such as sourdough, until they are golden and crisp. This creates a sturdy base for the toppings and adds a pleasant crunch.
Assemble the toast: Spread the avocado mixture evenly across each piece of toasted bread, making sure the layer is smooth and consistent.
Add the cottage cheese: Spoon the cottage cheese on top of the avocado layer, distributing it thoroughly for a creamy texture contrast.
Finish with toppings: Drizzle honey, hot honey, or balsamic glaze over the cottage cheese if using. Finally, add an extra squeeze of lemon juice and sprinkle additional Everything Bagel seasoning on top for an extra burst of flavor.

Notes

Mash the avocado first in a bowl rather than directly on the toast to ensure a creamier texture and to prevent squishing the bread.
Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the freshest, brightest flavor compared to bottled lemon juice.
Ensure you use a ripe avocado for easy mashing and the best creamy consistency.
Sourdough bread is recommended for its flavor and texture, but feel free to use your favorite bread to suit your taste.
