Ingredients

  • ½ cup 2% cottage cheese
  • 2 strawberries
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey or agave, depending on how sweet you like it
  • ¾ cup plain 2% Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup sliced strawberries + more for topping
  • ¼ cup granola
  • 1 graham cracker sheet broke up into pieces

Instructions

  • Add cottage cheese to a high-speed food processor or blender. Blend on high until completely smooth. Add the strawberries and honey and pulse until the mixture turns pink. Be careful not to process the strawberries on high, they will turn into liquid.

Tips & Notes

  • Any berry can be replaced with strawberries.
  • You can use honey, agave syrup, or maple syrup as a sweetener. The more sweetener you add, the sweeter your jar will be.
  • If you are meal-prepping this dessert, wait to add the granola and gharam crackers until later.
  • This recipe was tested 4 times. We tested blending the cottage cheese, strawberries, sweetener, and Greek yogurt, but it turned out too liquid-y every time. Be sure to fold the Greek yogurt into the cottage cheese mixture.
