This creamy, protein-rich smoothie is a simple and delicious way to start the day or refuel after exercise. Cottage cheese provides an easy-to-digest, high-quality protein source, offering around 14 grams of protein per half cup (if you tolerate dairy). For an extra protein boost, you can add your favorite protein powder or branched-chain amino acids. Berries bring a powerhouse of antioxidants, anthocyanins, and gut-supportive polyphenols that help reduce inflammation, protect brain function, and support microbiome diversity. Their natural sweetness pairs beautifully with the creaminess of cottage cheese, creating a smoothie that’s both satisfying and deeply nourishing.
