Ingredients

- Fresh peach slices 70 g
- Chia seeds 1 tsp
Method

Prepare the peach.
Wash the peach thoroughly under running water. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the peach into thin wedges, removing the pit in the center. Aim for about 70 grams of peach slices.
Tip: If peaches are very ripe, handle gently to avoid bruising. -
Measure the cottage cheese.
Using a kitchen scale, weigh out 150 grams of low-fat cottage cheese. Place it in a serving bowl or dish.
Tip: If you don't have a scale, roughly estimate about 3/4 cup of cottage cheese. -
Add peach slices to cottage cheese.
Arrange the fresh peach slices evenly on top of the cottage cheese. This will add natural sweetness and a juicy texture contrast.
Tip: You can gently fold some slices into the cottage cheese if you prefer. -
Sprinkle chia seeds.
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of chia seeds over the top of the cottage cheese and peach mixture. Chia seeds add a pleasant crunch and boost fiber content.
Tip: If you want chia seeds to soften, you can let the dish sit for 5 minutes before eating.
Pro tips
- Use ripe peaches for maximum sweetness without added sugar.
