RECIPE INGREDIENTS

» For Strawberry Cottage Cheese Smoothie

• 1 cup cottage cheese
• 1 cup strawberries (I?m using half fresh and half frozen)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons sweetener of your choice (optional)
• 1/2 cup (60 ml) milk of your choice

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

» How to Make Strawberry Cottage Cheese Smoothie

1. Add fresh strawberries, frozen strawberries (no need to thaw), cottage cheese, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract to a high-speed blender.
2. Blend on high for about 1-2 minutes, or until completely smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, scrape down the sides and add a splash of milk to thin it out, if desired. I like mine on the thicker side. Taste your smoothie, and feel free to add a bit more sweetener if needed.
3. Pour the chilled smoothie into serving glasses, garnish with strawberries, and chopped roasted pistachios. Enjoy it right away while it?s cold and fresh, or chill it for up to 1 hour.

RECIPE NOTES

1. For a twist and a more milkshake-like flavor, you can also swap the honey for strawberry jam.
2. You can use almond, oat, soy, coconut, or dairy milk. Vanilla-flavored milk also works well.
3. Since I use a mix of frozen and fresh strawberries, this smoothie doesn?t need ice. The frozen berries make it naturally cold and thick. If you use only fresh strawberries, feel free to add ice cubes.
