- To add a bit of crunch, sprinkle some granola or crushed nuts on top.
- For a burst of flavor, consider adding a few fresh mint leaves or a dash of vanilla extract.
- Ensure the strawberries are ripe and juicy for the best flavor.
- If you prefer a smoother texture, blend the cottage cheese before layering it with the strawberries.
