Ingredients
Base
- 1 cup frozen pitted cherries, chopped
- 1 (5.3 oz) serving low sugar vanilla yogurt (e.g., Siggi’s)
- ¼ cup full fat or low fat cottage cheese (e.g., Good Culture)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Toppings
- ½ cup chocolate Catalina Crunch cereal or other high protein chocolate cereal
- ½ tablespoon low sugar chocolate chips (e.g., Lily’s)
- Drizzle of almond butter
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the chopped frozen cherries to a bowl. Top them with the vanilla yogurt, cottage cheese, and vanilla extract, spreading evenly.
- Chill: Place the bowl in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the cherries to thaw slightly and flavors to meld, making the dish creamier and more enjoyable.
- Add Toppings: Once chilled, top the mixture with chocolate Catalina Crunch cereal and low sugar chocolate chips for added texture and chocolate flavor.
- Finish and Serve: Drizzle almond butter over the top for a subtle nutty richness. Stir gently to combine if desired, then enjoy immediately.
Notes
- For a colder, more refreshing dish, serve immediately without chilling the cherries.
- You can substitute frozen cherries with fresh cherries when in season.
- Use low fat or full fat cottage cheese based on your dietary needs.
- Adjust chocolate chips quantity for sweetness preference.
- Almond butter drizzle adds healthy fats and a nutty taste; substitute with peanut butter if preferred.
