Ingredients
  

1 cup cottage cheese (choose full-fat or low-fat based on your preference)

1/2 cup mixed fresh berries (including strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust to your desired sweetness)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional for added nutrition)

2 tablespoons sliced almonds or walnuts (for a delightful crunch)

A pinch of cinnamon (optional for extra flavor)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Berries: Begin by rinsing the mixed fresh berries under cold water to remove any impurities. If you’re using strawberries, hull them and slice them into bite-sized pieces for easy enjoyment. Combine all the berries in a bowl and set them aside to let their natural juices mingle.

    Assemble the Base: Take a serving bowl and spoon in the cottage cheese as your creamy base. You can either serve it in one large bowl or divide the mixture into two smaller bowls if you wish to share.

      Add Sweetness: Drizzle honey or maple syrup generously over the cottage cheese. Using a spoon, gently stir the mixture to incorporate the sweetener slightly, ensuring every bite has a hint of sweetness.

        Mix in Extras: If using chia seeds, sprinkle them evenly over the cottage cheese. If you'd like, lightly stir to disperse them throughout the cheese for an even texture and nutritional boost.

          Layer the Berries: Spoon the prepared mixed berries generously on top of the cottage cheese, creating a colorful and visually appealing layer. Reserve a few berries for garnish to enhance the presentation.

            Add Crunch: For added texture, generously sprinkle the sliced almonds or walnuts atop the berry layer. Their crunch will contrast beautifully with the creaminess of the cottage cheese.

              Finish with Flavor: If you desire, add a pinch of cinnamon over the top for a warm and aromatic touch that will enhance the overall flavor profile of your bowl.

                Garnish: Finish off your creation by decorating with the reserved berries and a few fresh mint leaves, adding a vibrant green touch to your dish.

                  Serve: Delight in your Berry Bliss Cottage Cheese Bowl immediately, perfect for breakfast, a nutritious snack, or a sweet dessert!
