Cottage cheese isn’t a typical favorite because of its lumpy texture and taste, but supermarkets have reported a surge in sales. Instead of making avocado toast, Gen Z is now pairing cottage cheese on sourdough toast with chili oil and scrambled eggs!
A nutritionist on TikTok went viral for her hot honey cottage cheese toast with 1.9 million views.
Her recipe includes mashing avocado with spring onion, basil and parsley, then seasoning with salt and pepper, putting the avocado mash on toast and adding the cottage cheese on top.
The user explained in the comments that it’s lower in calories and higher in protein than avocado. This new trend is inspiring others to add their own twists. One user even made her own variation of pizza where cottage cheese was used in place of a traditional pizza base.
