Print Recipe

Ingredients

The spread:

  • 1/2 cup Cottage cheese I love Breakstones Cottage Cheese
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp Balsamic vinegar 
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil 
  • Sea salt 
  • Pepper

The veggies:

  • 2 Bell peppers
  • 3 Scallions
  • 1 Zucchini
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Balsamic vinegar
  • Sea salt
  • Pepper

The rest:

  • Arugula
  • Ciabatta bread

Instructions

  • Preheat oven or grill to 400. Slice veggies- zucchini into strips, scallions in half and peppers into fourths. Drizzle with balsamic, olive oil, salt and pepper. Lay on a baking sheet and roast for about 20 min, turning halfway through. Veggies are done when they are softened and nicely roasted.
  • Make cottage cheese dip by blending cottage cheese, dijon, balsamic, olive oil, salt and pepper in a food processor or blender. It should be smooth and creamy. 
  • Toast bread and spread a healthy spoonful on each slice. Add veggies and a handful of arugula. Slice and enjoy! 

Notes

You could opt to grill the vegetables instead of roasting in the oven. If so, Preheat grill to 400 and cook for 10-15 min, turning halfway through.
