It's a perfect breakfast option or a healthy snack, providing a great balance of protein, fiber, and essential nutrients. This recipe is simple to prepare and can be made ahead of time, making it convenient for busy mornings.

Ingredients:

1/4 cup lowfat cottage cheese
54g
2 tbsp greek yogurt
30g
1/2 cup strawberries
80g
3/4 cup milk (3.25% fat)
180g
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
1/2g
2 tsp honey
14g
2 tbsp chia seeds
24g
2.50 oz frozen blueberries
70g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Hull and chop the strawberries.
- Measure out all the ingredients to ensure you have everything ready to go.
2. Blend the Base:
- In a blender, combine the lowfat cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, chopped strawberries, milk, vanilla extract, and honey.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and the strawberries are fully incorporated.
3. Mix in the Chia Seeds:
- Pour the blended mixture into a mixing bowl.
- Add the chia seeds and stir well to combine. Make sure the chia seeds are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
4. Let it Set:
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture into individual serving containers.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding-like consistency.
5. Prepare the Blueberries:
- Before serving, take the frozen blueberries out of the freezer so they can thaw slightly.
6. Assemble and Serve:
- Stir the chia pudding to ensure it's evenly mixed.
- Layer the pudding into serving bowls or jars.
- Top each serving with the thawed blueberries.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious and nutritious strawberry-blueberry chia pudding.

Tips:

- For a smoother texture, blend the cottage cheese and Greek yogurt before mixing them with other ingredients.

- To save time, prepare the chia pudding the night before and refrigerate. This allows the chia seeds to fully expand and create a pudding-like consistency.

- Fresh or frozen berries can both work well. If using frozen berries, allow them to thaw slightly before adding to the pudding.

- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey according to your taste preference.

- Top your pudding with extra fresh strawberries or blueberries for extra flavor and a decorative touch.

Enjoy your Strawberry-blueberry chia pudding that is not only tasty but also packed with nutrients. This delightful treat combines the sweetness of strawberries, the tanginess of blueberries and Greek yogurt, and the creamy texture of cottage cheese. Whether you're having it for breakfast, a snack, or even dessert, this pudding is sure to satisfy your taste buds while keeping you healthy.
