A quick, easy, and nutritious breakfast bowl combining creamy small-curd cottage cheese with mixed berries and a drizzle of honey, perfect for weight loss and busy mornings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (225g) small-curd cottage cheese
  • 1 cup (150g) mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries), fresh or frozen
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) honey
  • ½ teaspoon (2.5ml) vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
  • Lemon zest from ½ lemon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Scoop 1 cup (225g) of small-curd cottage cheese into a mixing bowl. For a smoother texture, whisk lightly or pulse in a small blender for 10 seconds (optional).
  2. Stir in ½ teaspoon (2.5ml) of vanilla extract to add a subtle sweet aroma (optional).
  3. If using frozen berries, let them thaw slightly for about 5 minutes at room temperature. If fresh, rinse and pat dry.
  4. Gently fold in 1 cup (150g) of mixed berries, being careful not to crush them.
  5. Drizzle 1 tablespoon (15ml) of honey over the top. If desired, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of chia seeds and lemon zest from half a lemon.
  6. Give the bowl a gentle stir to distribute honey and toppings evenly. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to an hour if preferred chilled.

Notes

Use small-curd cottage cheese for best texture. Thaw frozen berries for about 5 minutes to avoid icy or mushy texture. Add honey just before serving to preserve its floral aroma. Optional ingredients like vanilla extract, chia seeds, and lemon zest enhance flavor and nutrition. Can prepare the night before; flavors meld and chia seeds thicken the mixture.
