This Cottage Cheese Cream & Pear Compote is a low in fat and high in protein snack, and to my mind it makes a surprisingly light and delicious alternative to whipped cream. It is particularly good with fruit compote as suggested here. Give it a try.
Preparation
- Prepare the pear compote as explained here.
- Blend the cottage cheese and yogurt together until smooth.
- Divide the cottage cheese mixture evenly and top with the pear compote and toasted almonds. Serve.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup toasted sliced almonds
- ¾-pounds medium ripe pears, peeled, cored and cut into ¾-inch dice
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 3 prunes, quartered, pits removed
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 whole clove

Ann's Tips and Tricks
If you are using this cream as a topping, try adding a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup as you blend to make this even more kid friendly.
