Whipped Vanilla Cottage Cheese & Berry Parfait Bowl with vanilla cottage cheese, strawberries, raspberries and granola in a pale gray ceramic bowl

Blending cottage cheese with vanilla and a little maple syrup turns it into something closer to cheesecake filling. Layering it with berries and granola makes a parfait that's mostly protein.

Why this recipe works

Blending removes the curds and makes a smooth, rich base. Adding granola last keeps it crunchy.

Ingredient notes

Granola usually contains oats processed with wheat; use certified gluten-free granola if needed.

Common mistakes

Adding granola too early.
Under-blending.

What to serve with it

Lemon zest or a few mint leaves.

Meal prep

Whipped base keeps 4 days; assemble daily.
