The Cottage Cheese Thing…..
I envisioned a few nose-wrinkles when I said “cottage cheese & bananas,” but honestly it isn’t gross, lol – promise! The low-fat cottage cheese is neutral in flavor but gives the dish that creamy-note expected in real Banana-Cream Pie.
Toppings are optional of course, but I gotta tell ya – adding toasted walnuts, toasted coconut, banana slices and cinnamon sends this over the top! I add another splash of almond milk and Boom – breakfast!
Healthy & Figure-friendly, it’ll keep you full until lunch! OR, have half for breakfast and half as a snack.
The Cottage Cheese is neutral in flavor, but adds the creamy-note you’d expect in a Banana-Cream Pie.
