Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Cottage cheese
- 50 grams Jam of choice (e.g., strawberry, raspberry, apricot)
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 30 grams Nuts (e.g., almonds or walnuts)
- 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
Start by measuring 200 grams of cottage cheese and place it into a medium serving bowl.
If the cottage cheese has excess liquid, gently stir it to reintegrate, or pour off if preferred for a thicker consistency.
Add 50 grams of your chosen jam to the bowl with the cottage cheese.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over the top of the cottage cheese and jam mixture. This will add a touch of sweetness and enhance the flavor of the dish.
Coarsely chop 30 grams of your choice of nuts, such as almonds or walnuts, and sprinkle them evenly over the mixture. This will provide a delightful crunch.
Optionally, garnish with a few fresh mint leaves for a refreshing hint and a pleasing appearance.
Serve immediately with a spoon, ensuring each bite contains a bit of all the components for maximum flavor.
