Triple Berry Cottage Cheese Parfait
Light, protein-packed, and perfectly sweetened.

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cup fresh or frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

1/2 cup cottage cheese (blended until smooth)

Honey or sugar to taste

Instructions:

Prepare the Berries – If using frozen berries, allow them to thaw slightly for better texture and easier layering.

Blend the Cottage Cheese – Add cottage cheese to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.

Assemble the Parfait – In a wine glass or parfait dish, start with a layer of berries.

Add a dollop of the blended cottage cheese.

Drizzle with honey or sprinkle with a bit of sugar.

Repeat the layers until the glass is full, finishing with a berry layer on top.

   Optional Add-ons: Top with granola, chia seeds, or crushed nuts for crunch. You could always substitute plain Greek yogurt in this recipe.  I prefer the cottage cheese, it gives it a slight savory taste, balancing the sweet berries and honey perfectly!
