Cottage Cheese Sub in a Tub
The only thing better than regular “sub in a tub” for meal prep or a quick low carb meal is Cottage Cheese Sub in a Tub with a homemade high protein dressing!
No doubt you’ve heard of this viral, easy recipe.
But, let me show you how to take it up a notch 😉
How to make Cottage Cheese Sub in a Tub
It starts just like any, ordinary sub in a tub with a bed of chopped lettuce.
Then dice any deli meats of choice.
I went with salami, ham, and pepperoni.
You could also add onions, banana peppers, or tomatoes… which is what I went with.
And some shredded mozzarella cheese.
For the cottage cheese dressing you’ll need a food processor or blender.
Simply add 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 3 tablespoons Italian dressing, a little kosher salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Then just blend until smooth.
And add the dressing to your sub tubs.
I added the dressing to one, and put the dressing for the other one in a 2-ounce container to save for tomorrow’s lunch 🙂
Just pop on a lid and shake your Cottage Cheese Sub in a Tub and enjoy!
