Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crispy, roughly 6–8 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess grease, then crumble into pieces.
  2. Scoop out the cottage cheese into a large bowl to establish a creamy base, smoothing it out evenly.
  3. Layer the crumbled bacon, chopped romaine lettuce, and halved cherry tomatoes over the cottage cheese.
  4. Drizzle balsamic glaze over the assembled ingredients.
  5. Sprinkle with freshly cracked black pepper and optional cayenne or lemon for a kick.
  6. Serve immediately alongside whole grain crackers or toasted bread.
