Salad Ingredients
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- 1 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup chopped mint leaves (optional)
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, gently mix the cottage cheese and fresh mixed berries until evenly combined, ensuring the berries retain their shape and freshness.
- Add Honey: Drizzle the honey over the cottage cheese and berry mixture to add natural sweetness, stirring lightly to incorporate.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle the chopped mint leaves on top if using, for a fresh herbal note, and serve the salad immediately for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe berries for the best flavor and texture.
- Chopped mint is optional but adds a refreshing contrast.
- This salad is best served immediately to avoid the berries releasing too much juice and making the cottage cheese watery.
- For a vegan version, substitute cottage cheese with a plant-based alternative.
