Ingredients
Scale
- 160 g cottage cheese
- 60 g shredded chicken (hot or cold)
- 2 cooked bacon strips, chopped
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp dried parsley
- ½ tsp dried chives
- ½ tsp dried dill
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Put the cottage cheese into a mixing bowl. Add garlic powder, parsley, chives, dill, onion powder, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the herbs are evenly distributed and the mixture tastes balanced.
- If you prefer warm toppings, heat the shredded chicken and chopped bacon in the microwave for 30–60 seconds; otherwise use them cold.
- Spoon the seasoned cottage cheese into a serving bowl. Top with the shredded chicken and scatter the bacon pieces over the top.
- Serve immediately. Mix everything together for an even flavor, or leave layers intact for a prettier presentation.
Notes
Quick tip: For extra creaminess, fold in a small drizzle of olive oil or a spoonful of plain Greek yogurt.
