27g
1/4 cup lowfat cottage cheese
54g
1 tsp honey
7g

Instructions:

2. Toast the Bread:
- Take one slice of whole-wheat bread.

Tips:

- Choose a ripe pear for optimal sweetness and texture. A ripe pear should give slightly when pressed near the stem.

- Lightly toast the whole-wheat bread to add a crunchy contrast to the smooth cottage cheese and juicy pear.

- If you prefer a smooth cottage cheese texture, blend it in a food processor for a few seconds before spreading it on the toast.

- You can add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a few crushed nuts on top for extra flavor and texture.

- For a vegan option, substitute lowfat cottage cheese with a plant-based cheese alternative and use agave syrup instead of honey.
