Frullato proteico alla fragola con cottage cheese

Ingredienti

• 1 cup frozen strawberries
• 1/2 cup small curd cottage cheese
• 1/2 ripe banana
• 1/2 cup milk of your choice
• 1 teaspoon honey (optional)

Preparazione

1. 1

   Add the milk to the blender first, then the cottage cheese, banana, strawberries, and honey (if you desire it). Blend on high for 45 to 60 seconds, until completely smooth. Cottage cheese has small curds that can resist blending at first, so run it a little longer than you would for a typical fruit smoothie to get a creamier texture.

2. 2

   This recipe swaps traditional Greek yogurt for cottage cheese, which packs even more protein per serving into the same creamy texture. Once it's fully blended you honestly can't tell the curds were ever there. You get get a thicker, richer smoothie that adds protien and keeps you full longer.

3. 3

   If your blender struggles to smooth out the cottage cheese fully, let it sit at room temperature for ten minutes before blending, or blend the cottage cheese and milk alone first before adding the fruit.
