Ingredients
1/2 to 1 cup cottage cheese
1/4 cup fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries)
1–2 tablespoons nuts or seeds (almonds, walnuts, pecans, chia seeds, flax seeds, or hemp seeds)
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
1 pinch cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
1. Scoop the cottage cheese into a bowl.
2. Add the fresh berries on top.
3. Sprinkle the nuts or seeds over the fruit.
4. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup and sprinkle with cinnamon if desired.
5. Serve immediately.
Notes
For a savory version, omit the sweet toppings and add chopped cherry tomatoes, cucumber, everything bagel seasoning, or fresh herbs. To meal prep, store components separately and assemble when ready to eat. Full-fat cottage cheese offers creamier texture; low-fat works well too.
