Ingredients
- 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds or ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon Jell-o Instant Cheesecake Pudding Mix
- 1/2 cup dark frozen cherries, or preferred fruit
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- Drizzle of honey (optional)
Instructions
- Pour ingredients in a blender: start with the milk, then honey, cottage cheese, cheesecake mix, flaxseed and cherries. Blend until smooth.
Notes
- To increase the protein content, add 1 scoop of protein powder OR sub the almond milk with Fairlife skim milk.
- Use chia seeds to increase the fiber content instead of flax.
- Sub with any kind of berry you want. Strawberry cheesecake would also be delicious!
- Add more honey if you prefer a sweeter smoothie. Otherwise, this is a good blend of tangy and sweet.
