1 16-ounce container low-fat cottage cheese, I love Good Culture

½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste, or vanilla extract

3 tablespoons monk fruit sweetener, such as Lakanto, or sugar, honey or maple syrup

1 cup strawberries, sliced and divided

1 cup blueberries, or raspberries, blackberries (or a mix of each)

3 tablespoons slivered almonds, for topping

Blend on medium high until smooth, roughly 30 seconds. You may need to scrape down the sides.

Pour into 2 bowls and top with fresh berries and slivered almonds.

Notes

Variations

Yogurt: If you don’t love cottage cheese, substitute Greek yogurt. You can skip the blender step, and if you use vanilla yogurt, omit the sweetener and vanilla.

Fruit: Use whatever fruit is in season, like peaches, figs, pineapple, mango, or pomegranate seeds.

Nuts: Swap almonds for walnuts or pecans.

Seeds: For more protein and fiber, top with flax, chia, or hemp seeds.
