Cooking Directions
Toss cut avocados and tomatoes with some olive oil and a pinch of salt. Also sprinkle some salt over the cut cottage cheese slices.
Heat an open grill to high and grill avocados on each side for only a minute or two to get the nice grill lines.
Strain back in a bowl and toss with some lemon juice and keep aside.
Now also grill the cottage cheese slices and the tomatoes on the hot grill. Cottage cheese may take a minute or two longer but be careful not to let the tomatoes go soft, remove quickly.
Treat the greens, arugula or lettuce, with salt and lemon juice and coarsely chop or tear them and spread over your serving dish.
In a separate bowl mix all the dressing ingredients together till they emulsify.
Now fist place the tomatoes over the greens and then follow up with cottage cheese and finally avocados. Drizzle the honey vinegar dressing all over and enjoy fresh.
