Step 1:
How to make sandwiches with avocado and cottage cheese? Prepare the ingredients. Any bread will do — a loaf, wheat, rye, whole grain, like mine. You can even take diet loaves. Buy cottage cheese like Almette, Hohland, Violette, etc.
Step 2:
Cut the bread into slices about 1 cm thick. Dry the pieces in a dry frying pan on both sides or in a toaster. You can skip this step, but with crusty bread, the sandwiches will taste better.
Step 3:
Brush each slice of bread with cottage cheese.
Step 4:
Slice the lemon into thin circles. Cut each circle in half.
Step 5:
Cut the avocado in half, remove the stone. Then peel the fruit. Cut the pulp into thin slices. Half an avocado is enough for 4 toasts, a whole fruit is enough for 8 sandwiches. Avocados can be sprinkled with lemon juice so that they do not darken. It depends on how soft your fruit is. If the avocado is ripe, but elastic enough, then they will not darken quickly. Soft fruits darken faster and this spoils the appearance of the snack.
Step 6:
Put the avocado slices on the curd cheese. Add a slice of lemon to each sandwich. Sprinkle the sandwiches with salt and ground pepper. Garnish with lettuce leaves or herbs and serve.
Step 7:
Bon appetit!

Cottage cheese can be replaced with melted cream cheese. Or add finely chopped greens (dill, parsley, green onion feathers) to the curd cheese. Or use cheese with herbs.
If desired, you can fry the bread on both sides in olive oil.
As a base bread, you can use whole grain, like mine, or a regular white loaf or toast bread. Borodino bread is also suitable.

Another way to prepare this snack: peel and chop the avocado in a blender, adding 1 tbsp lemon juice, or mash the fruit with a fork.

It is very important to buy the right avocado. It should not be too soft, the skin should not fall through when pressed. But it should spring.
Therefore, it is better to buy a solid green fruit and let it ripen at home in anticipation of the celebration.

How to store avocado correctly:
- you need to store it in a paper bag. In an ordinary plastic bag, the avocado will spoil very quickly.
- add an apple to the package. It releases ethylene gas, which accelerates the ripening of avocados.
- it is better to store avocados in a warm, dry place.
