Combining the wholesome goodness of whole-wheat bread with the creamy texture of low-fat cottage cheese, the succulent taste of ham, and the fresh burst of tomato, this sandwich satisfies your taste buds while keeping it healthy.

Ingredients:

2 slices whole-wheat bread
50g
2 oz lowfat cottage cheese
60g
3 slices tomato
60g
2 slices ham
54g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Ensure that you have all the ingredients measured and ready to use.
- If the tomato is not already sliced, wash it and cut it into 3 even slices.
2. Toast the Bread (Optional):
- If you prefer a toasted sandwich, you can lightly toast the bread slices in a toaster or under a broiler until they are golden brown.
- Remove the bread from the toaster and let it cool slightly.
3. Spread the Cottage Cheese:
- Take one slice of whole-wheat bread and spread a generous layer of low-fat cottage cheese (2 oz) evenly over the surface.
4. Layer the Tomato Slices:
- Place the 3 slices of tomato evenly over the cottage cheese on the bread.
5. Add the Ham:
- Lay 2 slices of ham over the tomatoes, ensuring they are distributed evenly.
6. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Place the second slice of whole-wheat bread on top of the ham to complete the sandwich.
7. Serve:
- Serve the sandwich immediately. You can cut it in half diagonally or into quarters if desired for easier handling.

Tips:

- Toast the Bread: For an added crunch, lightly toast the whole-wheat bread before assembling your sandwich. This can prevent the bread from becoming soggy and enhance the flavor.

- Spread Evenly: Spread the cottage cheese evenly across both slices of bread to ensure every bite contains the creamy texture.

- Layer Order: Place the ham slices first on the bottom slice of bread followed by the tomato slices. This helps stabilize the sandwich and prevents the tomato from making the bread too moist.

- Add Seasoning: For extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper on the tomato slices before adding them to the sandwich.

- Extra Veggies: Feel free to add extra veggies like lettuce or spinach for more crunch and nutrients.

Enjoy your Ham and Cottage Cheese Sandwich with Tomato as a nutritious and filling meal that's quick to prepare. With its combination of flavors and textures, it’s perfect for any time of the day, whether it's for breakfast, lunch, or a light dinner.
