Turkey roll with cottage cheese and pepper is a refined dish of American cuisine that combines tender meat with a spicy cottage cheese filling and the aroma of fresh herbs. The sweet pepper and garlic give the filling a light sweetness and spiciness, while dill adds freshness. Baking with orange jam gives the roll a caramelized crust and subtle citrus notes. This dish is perfect for both festive dinners and cozy family lunches. Sliced into rounds, the roll is served with a vibrant salad of fresh vegetables and corn, creating a harmonious blend of flavors. Juicy, aromatic turkey in this recipe is a great alternative to traditional meat, light and healthy.
