02 -
  • For the creamiest texture, use full-fat cottage cheese or whip it briefly in a food processor
  • Fresh pineapple provides the best flavor, but canned pineapple (in juice, not syrup) works in a pinch
  • Make it a meal prep option by preparing individual portions of cottage cheese and pineapple in containers, then adding granola just before eating
  • For extra protein, mix in a tablespoon of your favorite nut butter
  • If using frozen fruit, let it thaw slightly to prevent chilling the cottage cheese too much
