Savory Cottage Cheese Bowl
Description
This recipe starts with a base of cottage cheese mixed with half the chives and freshly ground black pepper for a mild oniony note and peppery warmth. Crisp slices of Persian cucumber, seeded chopped bell pepper, and halved grape tomatoes are layered on top to provide vibrant freshness and contrasting textures.
