Ingredients (2 Servings)
- ½ cup low-fat cottage cheese (for a cheesecake-like creaminess + protein boost)
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt (adds tangy flavor + extra protein)
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, divided (half for blending, half for topping)
- ¾ cup milk of choice (unsweetened almond, dairy, etc.)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1–2 tbsp honey or pure maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 4 tbsp chia seeds (about 2 tbsp per serving)
How to Make It:
1️⃣ Blend the base – In a blender, combine cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, ½ cup strawberries, milk, vanilla, and honey. Blend until completely smooth and pink.
2️⃣ Add chia seeds – Pour the strawberry mixture into a jar or bowl and stir in the chia seeds. Mix very well so they’re evenly distributed. Let sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
3️⃣ Refrigerate – Cover and refrigerate overnight (or at least 2 hours) to let it thicken into a pudding-like consistency.
4️⃣ Serve & Enjoy – Stir well, divide into two portions, and top with the remaining chopped strawberries.
