I might be saying something controversial but I like cottage cheese. I always have. Call me crazy but the texture doesn’t bother me and I can eat it pretty much any time of day. (except for a late night snack, I’m not that crazy)
So if you’re like me and also riding the cottage cheese train then this recipe is for you. And if you’re not, humor me and still try this recipe because with the way I have you preparing it, you really can’t taste the cottage cheese or texture at all! It just tastes like creamy goodness bursting with yummy flavors coming from the tomatoes and basil.
Each bite delivers a perfect balance of protein and freshness, making it an ideal choice for a satisfying and energizing start to your day or a delightful mid-day treat. I hope you enjoy!
