Ingredients
  

1 cup low-fat cottage cheese

1/2 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1/2 cup blueberries

1/2 cup raspberries

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust to your preferred level of sweetness)

1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 cup granola (choose your favorite variety for added flavor)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, for added nutrition)

Fresh mint leaves for a vibrant garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Cottage Cheese: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cottage cheese with the vanilla extract. Mix well until the vanilla is fully incorporated. Taste and adjust the sweetness by drizzling in honey or maple syrup, based on your preference.

    Add the Berries: Gently fold in half of each type of berry—strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries—into the sweetened cottage cheese, ensuring not to mash them. Reserve the remaining berries for topping later.

      Assemble the Bowl: Using a spoon, transfer the cottage cheese and berry mixture into a serving bowl, ensuring an even distribution.

        Garnish with Berries: Artfully arrange the reserved berries on top of the cottage cheese mixture, creating a colorful and inviting presentation.

          Sprinkle for Crunch and Nutrition: Evenly distribute the granola over the top, adding texture and crunch. If you're including chia seeds, sprinkle them on as well for an additional nutritional boost.

            Final Touches: If you've decided to use fresh mint leaves, place a few sprigs on top of the bowl for an elegant finish, enhancing both the visual appeal and aroma.

              Serve and Enjoy: This delightful berry bowl is perfect when served immediately but can also be refrigerated briefly if you prefer a chilled dessert.
