Notes
Use sturdy bread to support heavier toppings.
Choose cottage cheese brands made with vegetarian rennet such as Good Culture and Nancy’s.
Hot sauces with simple ingredients such as Texas Pete Original Hot Sauce, Crystal Hot Sauce, or Sriraja Panich Hot Sauce work well.
Prepare fruit toppings right before serving to preserve freshness.
Store bread and toppings separately if prepping ahead of time.
