Ingredients

  • Low-fat cottage cheese 1 cup cup
  • Fresh peach 1 medium
  • Chopped walnuts 1/4 cup

Method

  1. Prepare the peaches. Wash the fresh peach under cool running water. Pat it dry with a clean towel. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the peach into thin wedges or bite-sized pieces, removing the pit.
    Tip: If the peach is very ripe, handle gently to avoid mushy slices.
  2. Measure the cottage cheese. Scoop 1 cup (about 240 grams) of low-fat cottage cheese into a serving bowl. This provides a creamy base rich in protein.
    Tip: Use a measuring cup for accuracy.
  3. Add walnuts. Measure approximately 1/4 cup (30 grams) of chopped walnuts and sprinkle them evenly over the cottage cheese. Walnuts add a satisfying crunch and healthy fats.
    Tip: Chop walnuts finely if you prefer smaller pieces for easier eating.
  4. Combine and serve. Arrange the sliced peaches on top or around the cottage cheese and walnuts. Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors and textures.
    Tip: For extra flavor, you can add a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon, but note this will change nutrition.

Pro tips

  • Use ripe but firm peaches to ensure easy slicing and pleasant texture.
  • Toast walnuts lightly in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes to enhance their flavor before adding.
