- 1 cup Mango (diced)
- 1 medium Banana (sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Shredded coconut (unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons Honey

In a medium mixing bowl, add the cottage cheese, honey, and lime juice. Stir well until all are combined and the cottage cheese takes on a creamy consistency.
Gently fold in the pineapple chunks, diced mango, and banana slices. Mix to evenly distribute the fruits without breaking them apart.
Sprinkle the shredded coconut over the top and gently fold it into the mixture for added tropical flavor.
