Step 1

Mix the cottage cheese with Italian seasoning and garlic powder in a microwave-safe mug or dish. If you’re not a fan of the cottage cheese texture, give it a quick blitz with an immersion blender first.

Step 2

Slice the tomatoes, bell peppers, mushrooms and olives, and layer them on top of the cheese mixture. Start with the tomatoes, then add the mushrooms, peppers, and olives.

Step 3

Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top.

Step 4

Pop it in the microwave for 90 seconds, or if you prefer, bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 7-10 minutes until the cheese melts into gooey perfection.
