Prepare the vegetables. Wash the cucumber and cut it into small cubes. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half or quarters. Slice the avocado into thin slices or cubes, and cut the spring onion into thin rings.

Place the cottage cheese as a base in a serving bowl. Gently smooth it with a spoon to create space for the toppings.
3
Arrange the chopped vegetables over the cottage cheese in an appealing way: cucumber, tomato, and avocado.

Sprinkle everything with pumpkin seeds and spring onion for crunch.
5
Finally, season the dish with salt, pepper, and chili, and drizzle with quality olive oil for healthy fats and a fuller flavor. Serve immediately.
