Cottage Cheese Bowl with Fruit
Cook's Notes: Blending cottage cheese with fruit pushes the traditional, salty snack into the sweet breakfast territory. Whipping the curds makes it smoothie bowl-like. Start to finish 10 minutes, and the recipe was adapted from BHG March 2025 and serves two. The recipe was served in a glass banana split dish. But one could also use other glassware. Another possibility is to divide the cottage cheese mixture and serve it in a sherbert glass or some other type of glassware. Ingredients:
- 1 cup low-fat small curd cottage cheese
- 1 cup frozen blueberries (do not thaw)
- 1 large banana, sliced
- 1 cup strawberries sliced or fresh raspberries
- 1 cup of your favorite granola
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- Optional add in your favorite protein powder
Directions:
- Blend cottage cheese, blueberries, half of the banana slices, and brown sugar in a high-speed blender or food processor.
- Divide the mixture between two bowls. Top with granola, the rest of the banana slices, and sliced strawberries.
- Serve immediately.
I may just try this as I like cottage cheese. My mom used to fill a canned peach half with cottage cheese, place it on a leaf of iceberg lettuce and call it a salad. I always thought it looked so fancy. And so did she.
