My Easy High-Protein Breakfast

One of the most common questions I tend to get is what do you eat on repeat? I have two answers to that questions:

  1. This tomato soup and
  2. This high-protein breakfast below.

I eat this breakfast daily, and it’s one I’ve eaten for a long time… even before this protein-craze began in the food world. I know a lot of people will say hummus + cottage cheese (or cottage cheese in itself)… Yuck!!! But, it really is a great combination.

There are even a ton of food bloggers and influencers who have talked about this combination a lot over the past year – blend them together and use as a spread, combine with shredded turkey, eat them together as a dip, etc… but a simple approach of just putting them on some crunchy toasted bread is how I like it best. The combination of these ingredients is full of protein, carbs and healthy fat. It takes only a few minutes to make, toasting being the longest part of it. And it’s really delicious. Truly!

Will you give this a try? Let me know in the comments below. Happy cooking!
