Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cottage cheese about 225 g; full-fat or low-fat
  • 0.5 cup mixed berries fresh or thawed frozen
  • 0.5 banana sliced
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp walnuts chopped, or any nuts
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • 1 pinch ground cinnamon optional

Equipment

  • 1 Bowl

Method
 

  1. Spoon the cottage cheese into a bowl.
  2. Top with the berries and sliced banana.
  3. Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with the walnuts, chia seeds and cinnamon. Eat straight away.

Notes

Make it smoother: if you do not like the curds, blend the cottage cheese for 20 seconds first. It turns thick and creamy, like Greek yogurt.
Savoury version: top with cherry tomatoes, cucumber, olive oil, salt, pepper and a pinch of chilli flakes.
Meal prep: portion the cottage cheese into jars for up to 3 days and add the fruit and toppings in the morning so they stay fresh.
