Cottage Cheese: Although some brands sell whipped cottage cheese in containers, I much prefer the taste of Good Culture, so I whip it myself. Vanilla: Use vanilla extra or vanilla bean paste for a sweeter flavor. If using a vanilla bean, cut it in half and scrape the seeds out with a spoon. Sweetener: Any kind will work–granulated sugar, honey, or maple syrup. For a sugar-free, zero-calorie option, use monk fruit. Fruit: I used sliced bananas and mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries). Nuts: Add slivered almonds for a little crunch and extra protein.

Variations
What can I use instead of whipped cottage cheese? If you don’t love cottage cheese, substitute Greek yogurt. You can skip the blender step, and if you use vanilla yogurt, omit the sweetener and vanilla. Fruit: Use whatever fruit is in season, like peaches, figs, pineapple, mango, or pomegranate seeds. Nuts: Swap almonds for walnuts or pecans. Seeds: For more protein and fiber, top with flax, chia, or hemp seeds.
How to Meal Prep Cottage Cheese Bowls
The whipped cottage cheese will last 5 days, so you can double the recipe for breakfast all week.
