A refreshing and satisfying snack that combines the creaminess of cottage cheese with the natural sweetness of blueberries and the bright notes of lemon zest.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup fresh blueberries
1 tablespoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons chopped nuts (optional)
Pinch of salt to taste
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, lemon zest, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until smooth.
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being careful not to crush them.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, portion the mixture into bite-sized servings on a parchment-lined tray.
If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts on top of each bite for added texture and flavor.
Refrigerate the bites for at least 30 minutes to firm up before serving.
