Instructions:

- Add a layer of half the sliced strawberries over the cottage cheese, spreading them out for a uniform layer.

- If you prefer, you can garnish with a sprig of fresh mint or a light drizzle of honey for an extra touch of sweetness.
Tips:
- For extra sweetness, drizzle a small amount of honey or maple syrup over the parfait.
- 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.
