MY AWESOME COTTAGE CHEESE TOMATO SANDWICH
Very filling, a low calorie comfort food that you can eat at any time of day. Recipe is easily doubled, trippled, etc. I like to make this in my toaster oven but it can easily be made in a toaster and a broiler or on a grill.

Steps:
- Set toaster oven on "toast" and place a slice of bread and a slice of tomato inside. After the bread is browned as much as you like it (I like mine VERY dark as you can see in the picture) flip it over. Leave the tomato.
- After the second side is done, take the tomato and bread out of the oven and set it to "broil.".
- At this step i also like to remove the skin from the tomato slice but that it optional. Place tomato on bread and spread cottage cheese on top. Sprinkle with chili powder.
- Place under the broiler and broil until cottage cheese starts to melt.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. This means using ripe tomatoes, fresh herbs, and good-quality bread. The better the ingredients, the better the sandwich will be.
- Make sure the tomatoes are ripe. Ripe tomatoes are sweeter and more flavorful than unripe tomatoes. If you can, use tomatoes that are in season.
- Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs add a lot of flavor to the sandwich. If you don't have any fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but they won't be as flavorful.
- Use good-quality bread. The bread is the foundation of the sandwich, so it's important to use a good-quality bread. A hearty bread, such as sourdough or whole wheat, will hold up well to the other ingredients.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make a cottage cheese salad sandwich. Experiment with different ingredients and find a combination that you like.
Conclusion:
The cottage cheese and tomato sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make lunch or snack. It's a great way to use up leftover cottage cheese and tomatoes.
