1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, mushrooms, and spinach. Add minced garlic, olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until well-coated.

      Assemble the Base: Spoon the cottage cheese into individual oven-safe bowls or one large baking dish, creating a base layer.

        Layer the Vegetables: Distribute the vegetable mixture evenly over the cottage cheese, pressing slightly to ensure they sit well.

            Bake: Place the bowls in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the vegetables are tender.

              Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired. Serve warm and enjoy your nutritious Cottage Cheese Pizza Bowl!
