Cottage Cheese Fruit Bowl

Ingredients

Instructions

1. 1

   PREPARE THE BASE: Divide the cottage cheese evenly between two serving bowls, using about 3/4 cup per bowl. Use a spoon to spread it into a smooth, even layer that covers the bottom of the bowl. For a creamier texture, you can briefly blend the cottage cheese in a food processor before adding to the bowls, but it's delicious either way.

2. 2

   ARRANGE THE FRUIT: Fan the peach slices on one side of each bowl, overlapping them slightly for a prettier presentation. Scatter the fresh berries on the other side. You can use any fresh berries you like - blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or a mix all work beautifully. Ripe, in-season fruit makes a big difference here.

3. 3

   ADD CRUNCH AND SPICE: Sprinkle the sliced almonds over the top - they add protein and a satisfying crunch that contrasts nicely with the creamy cottage cheese. Dust the cinnamon evenly over everything - it adds warmth and pairs perfectly with the peaches.

4. 4

   FINISH AND SERVE: Drizzle honey in a zigzag pattern over the entire bowl. Serve immediately. This high-protein breakfast is filling and nutritious, and the cottage cheese keeps you satisfied for hours. The combination of protein, fiber from the fruit, and healthy fats from the almonds makes this a well-balanced meal.
