Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. In a skillet, heat over medium heat and add your bacon slices. Cook for 5–7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they reach a golden-brown and crispy state.
  2. While the bacon is cooking, rinse the romaine lettuce under cool water, then chop it into bite-sized pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes for a juicy burst in every bite.
  3. In a serving bowl, start by layering the creamy cottage cheese as your base. Evenly sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the cottage cheese, then add the chopped romaine and halved cherry tomatoes.
  4. Lightly season your assembled bowl with freshly cracked black pepper and drizzle a generous amount of balsamic glaze over the top. Toss gently just before serving.
